Depends what is meant by 'hate' speech. If it's the legal definition then the mods would already sanction or ban people for expressing those views so what other speech do people want to censor?
The Cambridge dictionary definition is:
. public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence toward a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation (= the fact of being gay, etc.)
We have a few regular posters who sail close to the wind fairly frequently imo.
I don't advocate bans unless someone clearly crosses the line. Let them embarrass themselves and have their views challenged.
