		Hate speech is a controversial term for speech intended to degrade, intimidate, or incite violence or prejudicial action against someone based on his race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.

		The definition of hate speech is used in the legal community to address speech that denigrates persons on the basis of their race or ethnic origin, religion, gender, age, physical condition, disability, sexual orientation, and so forth (Sedler, 1992, as cited in Leets and Giles, 1997).
