Unique Topics Tournament Round 1 User v.s. Fire: Hate speech should be permitted

My case will be kinda strange. I really hope there will be no forfeits in the debate, because of the ongoing glitch. My opponent and I agreed that swearing is a type of hate speech, but was to late to put it in the definitons. I thank my opponent That1User for accepting my debate, and being my opponent, and thank bsh for making the tournment. This is round 1, and for advertising, round 1 can be viewed here (I am turning to such a spammer these days): . http://www.debate.org...Framework/ My caseMy framework will be based on freedom. Freedom of choice, freedom of speech, blah. I will be showing how freedom is important, and how freedom gives an impact to the debate. First of all, be all have basic freedom. We aren't slaves, we don't nessecarily are owned by anyone like slaves, slavery ended around 150 years ago [1]. This gives us basic freedom. Why is freedom important? Because without freedom, then we can't be free, and do the things we want to do. We can't make our own choices, we can't really speak what we want to speak without freedom. Here is a definiton of slavery: the quality or state of being free: as [2]. Without freedom, we can't be free, and can't make our own choices overall. Slavery was very unfair, my opponent should agree. If my opponent doesn't agree, which won't really happen, I will just say that slaves got no money, had to work in fields all day, got hurt if couldn't do work by the "whites. " Here is a source about how bad slavery was, and there will probably be a lot more sources about this [3]. Slavery actually is basically no freedom, as slaves were not free. Slavery is bad. Slavery is the same as no freedom. Therefore, no freedom is bad. This is the long way of saying this, short: No freedom is bad because we can't make our own choices. Therefore, we should have freedom. There are different kinds of freedom. Freedom of choice, or also known as liberty [4], is one of them. This is that we get to make the right of choice, and we can do what we want to do. Freedom of speech is one of them, there is also the freedom of speech [5]. I believe that this debate is based on the U. S, as this debate site is a U. S. site. Freedom of choice is important for the US, and it is the first amendment in the Constitution. This means it is a law, and we need to follow it. As these are both some kind of freedom, and we need freedom, we need the freedom of choice, and the freedom of speech. As I showed in my last paragraph that freedom of speech needs to be followed, as it is a type of freedom. In speech, we have different kinds of speech. Just talking, debating, hate speech, etc. These are all a type of speech. This debate is about hate speech. Hate speech is a type of speech. We have the freedom of speech. Therefore, we must have the freedom to have hate speech, meaning that it should be permitted. No matter if it is swears, or whatever, we have the freedom of speech. This includes hate speech. Therefore, hate speech should be permitted. That was the main reason that we should not ban hate speech, and hate speech should be permitted. The rest will probably be defensive arugments. And, there is particularly no reason to ban hate speech. Why is hate speech so bad. Why do people swear? Because they want to swear! !! They have reasons why they want to swear, or express hate in speech. They won't suddenly used hate speech and swear in the middle of something which happens nicely. They swear because they want to swear. We should let them swear if they want to swear. There is no reason to actually ban hate speech, as they want to swear, or use hate speech. There are many other reasons why we shouldn't ban hate speech. First of all, as I said in all that spam above that hate speech is a type of speech, we have the freedom of speech, as we need freedom. Freedom of speech is the first amendment to the US constitution [6]. If we ban hate speech, that is banning a sort of speech, which takes out the first amendment, freedom, and liberty. We are breaking many laws. And, there is no need to actually ban it. So why should we ban it? There is no reason to ban it, there are only bad effects. ConclusionThere is no reason, only bad effects if we ban it hate speech. We break laws, the freedom of people, etc. I have shown enough reasons why hate speech shouldn't be banned. There is no reasons why hate speech should be banned. Until my opponent says why hate speech should be banned, then the resolution is still affirmed. Vote for Pro.
