I think that the governments are right to prosecute these anti-semites. There is no point to the discussion of holocaust denial other than that. Expression of opinions can be slander, and if this is allowed to stand, on precedent, then what keeps me from bringing up and discussing the radical issues of eugenics used to justify slavery?

While I do agree that anyone denying the Holocaust is an anti-semite and is completely misguided, I do feel that the right to free speech is very important. Expression of opinions CAN be slander, but in this case, I am afraid that it is not. Regardless of how we feel towards those who may deny that this tragedy occurred, we cannot dismiss our rights. To speak of precedents, once the precedent is set that our right to free speech no longer applies in all situations, who knows what will stem from that? I am more worried about that than I am about having to put up with misguided people. I already do that often enough.
