maybe the jews should be removed from our country then

Just the ones “which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie” fake Jews from the bible?

The Filthy Khazers

Who? Not sure who that is

Censorship guarantees that the only form of speech allowed is the form that is beneficial to the censor. Since power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely, then we are guaranteed that the power of censorship will lead to only corrupt speech.

On the other hand if a free exchange of ideas is tolerated -- even ideas that are terrible and hateful, then we can evaluate them all together and select those we wish to adopt. The bad idea will fall to the wayside as the better ideas gain success.
