Agree

Yes, as long as it does not threaten violence

They may agree with this statement to some extent, as they have supported legislation that prohibits hate speech but allows for some exceptions, such as artistic works or genuine academic debate.

Yes, because I don’t trust the government to define the boundaries of hate speech

Very strongly disagree

No, freedom of speech laws should only protect you from criticizing the government

They support the right to express opinions and ideas, but also recognize the need to balance this with protections against hate speech and discrimination.
