Yep, I think was have to wait for actual bullets to start flying before we can classify this a hate speech.
lets hope enough people in the black community fully grasp what a total asshat Farrakhan really is.

What's scary is how everyone in the building stood up and started clapping as soon as he said "kill".

Farrakhan wouldn't understand the Quran if the Angel Gabriel came himself to recite it for this old prick.
Scumbag.

Someone will have to die as a direct result of his speech to classify it "hate speech".

lol One could be forgiven for assuming that any group with the word Islam in its title would be Muslim. But when it comes to the group calling itself the “Nation of Islam”, one must be very wary indeed.
The “Nation of Islam” does not adhere to the core tenets of Islamic theology. They believe that God appeared on earth in the person of their founder, a “great man from the East”, Master W. Fard Muhammad, a preacher who first came to public attention in the USA on July 4, 1930 then mysteriously “departed the scene” on February 26, 1934. As the NOI website unambiguously declares:
“WE BELIEVE that Allah (God) appeared in the Person of Master W. Fard Muhammad, July, 1930; the long-awaited “Messiah” of the Christians and the “Mahdi” of the Muslims.”
In 1934 following the unexplained departure of the “Master”, the organization he founded came to be headed by one Elijah Poole, who became known as the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Until very recently, the “Nation of Islam” accorded the status of prophet to Elijah Muhammad.
Therefore it is clear that despite their name and calling themselves Muslims, “Nation of Islam” beliefs about God and prophethood are glaringly incompatible with Islam.

Some limits on expression were contemplated by the framers and have been read into the Constitution by the Supreme Court. In 1942, Justice Frank Murphy summarized the case law: "There are certain well-defined and limited classes of speech, the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise a Constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous and the insulting or “fighting” words – those which by their very utterances inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace."[78]
In 1969, the Supreme Court protected a Ku Klux Klan member’s racist and hate-filled speech and created the ‘imminent danger’ test to permit hate speech. The court ruled in Brandenburg v. Ohio that; "The constitutional guarantees of free speech and free press do not permit a state to forbid or proscribe advocacy of the use of force, or of law violation except where such advocacy is directed to inciting imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action."

This is terrorist talk and I think the U.S. government should intervene and stop this type of talk.
So, you don't support freedom of speech?
Plus this is a hate crime but some people can do this and get away with it.
What crime did he commit?
I was kinda thinking of freedom of speech. I'm not sure if it includes making threats to do bodily harm.

This is terrorism at its finest and I think the U.S. government should intervene and stop this type of talk. This goes beyond racist remarks, this guy wants black people to kill. Plus this is a hate crime but some people can do this and get away with it.
My first thought is it is you spreading the message. If they prosecute should they include this post / thread?
This is nothing but hate. Why promote such nonsense?
