I think you are arguing from very different legal systems here.  If 
anything, Philip you should mention the legal basis you are arguing 
from.  The US, for example and as far as I know, are strictly liberal 
when it comes to freedom of speech.  In the US you are allowed to say 
things which are banned, for example, in Germany (for historic reasons).

I don't think Roedy's statements qualify as hate speech (and I come from 
Germany which has a more restrictive approach to freedom of speech). 
Whether you think those claims are true or not, or even good to have 
that on the site is a totally different question.

Cheers
