Bruce Schneier reviews Access Denied

It's happened in the USA in the past also were the racist a-holes turned around and attacked
their audience. 

But that time is mostly gone. They are still violent, to be sure, but they can no longer have
the power they once had, except in very isolated and backward areas.

My point is, though, that making that sort of thing illegal (aka hate speech) isn't going to
make those people be nice. It'll make it worse if anything.
