That some countries punish thoughtcrime is not surprising. That some people are proud of the fact that their countries don't pass laws forbidding people to think particular thoughts is not surprising either.
The discussion is not about thoughtcrimes. It is about hate *speech* which is a different matter. The U.S. is actually violating an UN resoltion by not passing hate speech laws.

No, the discussion is about the legality of /racism/. No one mentioned hate speech until you brought it up. Please try to stay on topic.
