Fuck yeah, Kamala Khan!

Pamela Geller has called the street artists "supremacist criminals"

That is awesome.

HOW, though, can they put 'hate speech' as 'free speech'? To me, that's right up there with, say, pictures of black men or women being hanged and some disgusting rant with the n-word in it. Hate speech should *not* be protected.

Pamela Geller's American Freedom Defense Initiative, identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an extremist anti-Muslim hate group . . .
The journalists' lawyers make them find other people's mouths for their words, but for the rest of us, quite simply
Pamela Geller is a professional hatemonger.

She is vile. There is no other word for her. Isn't she Jewish? She should know better than to spread hate against any group.
