The burning of the Islamic holy book in Denmark has stirred outrage in Muslim-majority nations. Critics of the Quran burning law say it would undermine liberal freedoms in the Scandanavian country.
Would you also consider chants such as “death to all Jews/gays/black people” or actions such as burning trans flag as freedom of speech and do you believe it should be tolerated?
No. This isn’t 20 questions and it is not on me to go through every situation. Sorry you don’t give a shit about your right to speak your mind go find some shaman and hand yourself over to them.
Sorry, but then I do not understand your logic. To me it seems like you are saying that people should be able to burn Quran (because freedom of speech) but at the same time you believe that burning a trans flag* should not be tolerated. Where is the difference? I am not saying that your opinion is incorrect, I am just unsure what your stand is because suddenly when your logic is applied to a different situation, you refuse to respond
Also, if you believe that ad hominem will make your argument look stronger, then you are clearly wrong.
*Just to make sure: I support all LGBTI rights, I just used them as a comparison.
My logic is I don’t want to waste time dealing with literally every single example out there in the borderline between freedom of expression ends and active harassment begins. I am not a judge, I am not an elected official, I am not a lawyer, and I am definitely not an expert on free speech law in Denmark.
Generally yes you should be legally allowed to express any vile opinion you have and do it in a vile way. That doesn’t mean you get to go in front of someone’s house at 3 am screaming racial slurs at them while waving around a knife. The people of Denmark are giving up freedom for security and it is security from shamans. That makes me sad.

That’s valid. Thanks for clarification.
