It’s a scary time. The air is full of angry words. Hate crimes are on the rise. Now, many would say, is the time to bring in tougher laws against hate speech. The government certainly thinks so. New federal legislation would criminalize the display of certain hate symbols and make it easier to lay charges for spreading hate propaganda.
