Freedom Of Speech. Period.

What's to talk about?? It happened, millions were killed, what is to talk about. Unless you are one of those that think it did not happen...

i am not saying either , but i stil should have the right to question it , since you are saying we must have unrestricted freedom of speech . People shouldnt go to jail because they question if it happened or not , freedom of speech should give them the right to say whatever they want .... !

Those countries where it is illegal to criticize "the official story" of the holocaust have serious issues with free speech, I don't think anyone here denies that.

Ehm no? It is illegal in 10 European countries: France (Loi Gayssot), Belgium (Belgian Negationism Law), Switzerland (article 261bis of the Penal Code), Germany, Austria (article 3h Verbotsgesetz 1947), Romania, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, and Poland.

In the other 40 or so countries it is not illegal. And yes those countries (above) are in no way good examples.

^^^ Specifically, it's not illegal to be a holocaust denier in Denmark - go tell your friends qussay, there's clearly a need for you guys to get educated about the rules abroad.

Anyway, as to the world outside Europe, I think that Israel is the only country with laws against holocaust denial? Anyone?

clearly , trancaholic , you and your friends are the ones in need of immediate education and exposure !

A couple of months ago , a man ( not sure about his nationality ) got sentenced to do some prison time because he stated publicaly back in the 80s , that in his opinion , the holocaust didnt not exist. Even after , that man spoke up and apologized and said , that back then , he wasnt well informed , and he changed his mind now, they still made him go to jail !!!!! I think that incident happened in australia .

if you need more info on this topic , i will gladly point it out to you . I am also sure , that there are many european countries which follow the same " free speech " way of living !

It happened in Austria, which besides the name, has little resemblance to Australia. As has already been pointed out, Austria is one of the countries with laws against holocaust denial, so I'm not really sure what to take home from your post? However, it does appear that even in this regard I'm better informed than you. Just for closure, though, assuming that your assertion made sense - and *Australia* had laws against holocaust denial - how would that relate to what's printed in an independent *danish* newspaper? Do you think that this paper is somehow deciding the laws in Austria/Australia?
