Lets Thank Our Founding Fathers Once Again For Their Framework:
Recently in a report just released by the US Gov regarding the growth of world wide 'anti-semitism' they had this to say about holohoax denial:
"Denying the Holocaust is a crime in a number of European countries. For instance, Holocaust denial is illegal in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,
France, Germany, Liechtenstein, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, and Switzerland. Such conduct cannot be criminalized in the United States. The U.S. Constitution protects freedom of expression and, generally, the government may not restrict expression
based on its content regardless of the offensiveness
of the underlying message."
I don't like the fact that they inserted "generally" in there as to leave the idea open for discussion but for now it certainly looks like the stance on outlawing Holohoax denial wont be happening anytime soon which makes America a beacon for truth to speak out about the false history to the rest of world. The rest of the report seemed quite interesting on how they have their 'hands tied' to fight 'anti-semitism' in the USA because of our Constitution's 1st Amendment to say what we feel and our 2nd Amendment to back those words up with firepower from the citizens...
Here is the report: http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/102301.pdf
