Free speech is meaningless if it doesn't mean freedom to express the most rephrensible of messages. You don't need free speech if all you're doing is expressing popular opinions. While that doesn't mean you should vote for the group, that does mean that it is anti-free speech to vote against it in an effort to silence the speech. Besides, there's already an alt.music.white-power and any other number of newsgroups I find offensive. Let the cockroaches run in the daylight where we can shine the light of day on their idiocy. - Don
