I think as far as freedom of speech is concerned in the US at least, hate speech is protected. Inciting violence through the things you say is not protected under free speech however.
Free speech is important because if you're not allowed to talk about issues you're forcing them to take action instead. We have seen it in Scandinavia where Sweden is very politically correct (aka censored) and it has resulted in refugee camps being set ablaze. In Norway and Denmark however, two countries that share a lot in common with Sweden otherwise, people don't get heavily censored or become ostracised for voicing a politically incorrect opinion, so violent altercations virtually don't exist.
Calls to violence aren't acceptable in my opinion, but I see in American society some groups are perfectly allowed to call to violence against other groups, but not vice versa. Hypocrisies like this is going to be the undoing of your country.
It's funny (or sad really) that the people who complain about so-called hate speech are the most hateful people themselves. Just look at their rhetoric and actions, they are the ones calling for violence and extermination of other peoples.

Joel sadly in the case of the BLM it is. And as Thunder brought up a very good point, the PC Censorship has been playing a very big hand in things.
Don't ever think the reason I am peaceful is because I do not know how to be violent.
Ekki hugsa alltaf að ég sé friðsælt vegna þess að ég veit ekki hvernig á að vera ofbeldi.
You take me out of context. I said MUSLIMS AS WELL, not just muslims. But if someone really believes free speech is something ought to be restricted, they don't believe in free speech at all. You can't have the cake and eat it at the same time.
Your school indoctrinated you. Wake up.

You're literally singling out a specific group of people. Don't dance around it.
You're right in that regard. But I have no problems with muslims, only Islam. Islam is really what makes some muslims dominant and stupid.
What I have a big problem with is neoprogressive Social Justice Warriors. With SJW, I mean those who come to any opportunity to defend our oppressors unconditionally. I always stand up for the victims. Muslims are victims to their own religion, especially female muslims. Neofeminists are quick to call white heterosexual people rapists while hypocritically not saying a word about muslim rape.
