Really they aid this crap and do it too, like with that idiot Ernst Zendel; I disagree with a lot of that guys crap but why have a stupid law for a stupid thing, I say laugh at him and his beliefs; use reason to combat the words of the darker side of man, why be a Nazi Opionion Denier? Is that different, is burning Mein Kupf better than reading it and knowing the enemy or allowing someone the Liberty at least that doesn't require a personality test, just a book store where they are willing.I will Grant one thing, it's silly for someone like Phelps to say his God Hates America and then hide behind United States American Law to say God Hates him. Hmmm Under the God who hates it? Is Fred Phelps any different in threat than Al Queda? Blame Canada, hah!

Absolutely nothing--beside serving a pretext under which the state can throw you in jail for failing to submit to its officially sanctioned account. Of course they chose something like the holocaust this time; it confuses the real issue and conceals their true object: your complete and abject submission. This is the one and only purpose of the mind that would conceive of such a law. What can this legislation possibly accomplish?

It makes ordinary people, who never gave any credence to the "deniers" before, to start wondering if there is something to their claims.As Professor Lipstadt pointed out, the way to refute "holocaust deniers" is with proven historical facts, not courts and prison. Denying their freedom of speech will just make martyrs of them and increase their credibility with others.
