	Hate speech - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hate speech is a controversial term for speech intended to degrade, intimidate, or incite violence or prejudicial action against a group of people based on their race, gender, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.
		Others argue that hate speech limits the free development of political discourse and ought to be regulated, but by voluntaristic communities and not by the state.

	Free Speech: Campus Hate Speech Codes
		The hate speech that codes target, in contrast, is not presented rationally or used to provoke debate.
		Therefore, if the primary purpose of an academic institution is to educate students, and hate speech obstructs the educational process by reducing students' abilities to learn, then it is permissible to extend protection from hate speech to students on college or university campuses.
		Whether hate speech codes are morally just responses to campus intolerance depends on how society interprets the harms of discriminatory harassment, the benefits and costs of restricting free speech, and the just balance between individual rights and group rights.

		In the case of speech, we then note that things which no one dared to say aloud twenty years ago (except for marginalized fascist groups) are now in a certain perverse way "chic", "cool." It seems that it has become all right to express one's rage (imaginary or real), in the terms one chooses.
		"Hate speech" would not even be an issue, if the speech in question were not somehow "uttered" in the bodily presence of the person to whom it is addressed, either in person or as merely the stand-in for all such persons.
		"Hate speech" is the result, thus the product, of repression; but, at the same time, the expression of repression as "hate speech" is facilitated by a lowering of the affects of repression, of the effective responses of the repressive system.

	American Civil Liberties Union : Hate Speech on Campus
		Speech that deeply offends our morality or is hostile to our way of life warrants the same constitutional protection as other speech because the right of free speech is indivisible: When one of us is denied this right, all of us are denied.
		Speech codes are not the way to go on campuses, where all views are entitled to be heard, explored, supported or refuted.
		The ACLU believes that hate speech stops being just speech and becomes conduct when it targets a particular individual, and when it forms a pattern of behavior that interferes with a student's ability to exercise his or her right to participate fully in the life of the university.
