    Maybe it's a bit harch to fine people for being stupid. In essense I agree about freedom of speech. Too bad neo-nazies get those rights too... Only danish newspapers are condemmed.

    If I lost my family to the nazi death-camps I would certainly be hurt if somebody said I was a liar or delusional. Maybe as much as if somebody called me a jewish *** (don't know any jewish racial slurs...) or something like that. So what is the difference?

    Remember that many millions lost family and friends in those camps. Not only jews, but also communists, handicapped, homosexuals, gypsies and policemen from occupied countries.
    Nope - no sig what so ever.

    Uhm, no... I can't think of a single time a nazi has said something and not been condemned...

    Nope, why waste money on housing them in jails?

    No. Jailing them gives them a vague sense of legitimacy, like the "government" doesn't want them spreading the word. They should be kept out in the open where people can point and laugh at them.
