Show me a committee of people who you think should be trusted to decide what speech is not allowed.
And I will show you a group of fallen men, like the rest of us, who will abuse their power for political gain.
And where do you draw the line? Maybe you could get everyone to agree on "kill all gays" being irredeemably intolerant. But what about conservatives who think that children benefit from having a mother and a father and so believe that only adoption by married heterosexual couples should be allowed[1]? According to you, is that just wrong or is it worthy of censorship? And what of the many religions who believe that wives should obey their husbands? And what of discussions of multiculturalism and its potential threats to social cohesion? You give only easy examples, but the trouble is never with the easy examples.
[1] And the for the record, I'm in favor of allowing adoption by gay couples.
