The use of racist terms & phrases is fairly well governed by the law I think.

Being ‘offended’ was the issue that was discussed in the other thread. In my humble opinion, the extent of free speech has to be wide and it’s outer limits defended. Otherwise it is slowly eroded, reduced in scope and has its objectives defeated. ‘Offense’ is how blasphemy is currently being rebranded and brought back as a concept in Europe.

Generally agree with that. However, the outer limits do have to be amended in some instances and the law regarding racist abuse was one such example as you say. The problem these days is that many people seem to think they have, or ought to have, the right to legal recourse for any view held which is different from their own.
