Hate speech laws need to go.
They are in Canada, across Europe, Australia, California, new york.

In the US, I think we should look at who shouldn’t be permitted to procreate. If you’ve been found guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt of harming kids (especially your own through, say, molestation), you should not be allowed to have (more) children.

AFAIK, it's established after WW2 (well, there're some human rights thingie, but not as strong as the one after WW2).
Should we curtail this? Yes. So many (not all) criminal who's un-reformable after getting out of jail, they keep doing same thing. They're not human, they dont deserve human rights.

In Europe it would have to be that everyone has the right to live. Curtail that and we can have capital punishment for peedos and murderers.
While I believe the death penalty has its uses, it's been shown on numerous occasions to have incredible fallacies. For one, there are a number of cases where after the punishment is carried out, it's found that the punished have been innocent. Another is the massive cost associated with keeping inmates on death row. I did a report a few years ago for a class I took, and I'll try to find it, but it costs something like 4 times as much to keep a death row inmate housed. If I recall, it's partly because of the higher security (more likely to attempt suicide, more likely to get into riots, etc. because they have nothing to lose). There's also the lengthy and costly appeals process.
For convictions where there's absolutely no doubt that the crimes were committed and that the offender has no chance of rehabilitation though (Dahmer, Gasy, Bundy), I'm all for it.
