There is a clear difference between "Stating your beliefs", let's say I hold that communism is the best form of government, and you hold that a republic is the best form of government. We can both freely state our opinions on the appropriate web sites (private site = the owner can control or limit what is said, yes that includes facebook) and neither of us should be arrested.

But, if I advocate the extermination of an entire people group, that is no longer just my opinion and is instead 'hate speech' which should not be tolerated.
