RE: Discrimination - pros and cons

If we protect opinions and behavior patterns from discrimination, where does it stop?

Exactly. Governments must protect liberties, not opinions or lifestyles. When they protect opinions, they destroy liberties: freedom of speech, freedom of belief, freedom of thought.

However, there is a gray zone where opinions become more than opinions, like, the guy in South Africa who called his voters to kill white people, and, when journalists asked him if he called for the mass killing of whites, he answered "No, but I can't guarantee, I won't call for that in the future".

Intimidation isn't just an opinion because it restricts liberties.

Intimidation can also be decentralized - another thing to think about.

I think as soon as people are afraid of being critical of anything (like Islam), it should be a reason for a big discussion in a nation - if your freedom has been hacked by someone you can’t see or sue, it doesn’t mean you should give up on your freedom.
