The term hate speech is too broad a term to give a conclusive answer too, what could be deemed as being hate speech for some may not be by others. It's also not a good idea for government to decide what is hate speech, any assessment of speech of any kind especially hate should be dealt with by an independent body. I do feel though that views should be aired even if just to debate, debunk or counteract them and any very clear hate speech such as racism for example that has no merit or productivity within a conversation should be dealt with under existing means
