Will that impact on their freedom of speech?.. Probably.
Do I care?... No.
The hate laws we have specifically state that inciting racial hatred is a crime, therefore freedom of speech is already called into question right there.
You cannot legally do this; ergo you must stop, or be stopped.

"hate speech" can be viewed as pretty meaningless, unless it's something you care about. When people start campaigning for Christians preaching that gays will burn in hell, to be deported then we can look at it.
Is the hate speech of a cleric really classed as "racial hatred?" What if he's a honky, like me?
