This is a dilemma in democracies: allow free speech even if it is hate speech like the article below. This so-called "Catholic" (Geert Wilders) is another kind of fundamentalist in a growing lists of fundamentalists around the world. Every religion seems to sprout their share of these hate-mongers, a major threat to civilized society. May their tribes rapidly decrease, or better yet may they move to another planet and fight among themselves there.
