> I'm no lawyer, but I think that's treading awfully close to "hate speech". How about caricature of public figures? Note that they do not have to be tasteful or respectful. Just look at bankers depicted as pigs. I am neither american nor a lawyer, but as I understand it hate speech has a fairly narrow definition over there. It requires imminent danger of inciting violence. Merely expressing racist or other kinds of -ist viewpoints is not hate speech.
