  • Any law can be taken too far. And Germany has an especially difficult historic situation. But just because a law might be abused (and frankly many US laws are, you don’t have to look abroad) that doesn’t mean we don’t make laws. The line could easily be drawn at “not calling for genocide” I think that’s fairly safe.

    And yeah many anti-terror laws (hot since the early 2000s) are perfect examples of this. So this abuse is already happening today and has been for some time. Anyone remember George Bush’s “free speech zones”? If the powers that be want to abuse the law, they don’t need this pretext. So I don’t see how banning Nazis speech will make things worse.
