"there's a discrimination law for speeches?! since when?"
Since about the late 1980s. Look up "hate crime" laws or what some human rights commissions and courts have been up to in the free world lately.

For speeches?! Then how come there's still something like the KKK? It depends on what you discriminate for? I think you're making this up.

Not every country is the United States. Canada, in particular, has Hate crime laws which prohibit certain kinds of speech. I don't know about Australia specifically, but Wikipedia has more info.
