I somewhat agree, but there should probably be instances where it's not allowed, similar to hate speech. I'm not sure how Danish law deals with hate speech, but I'd bet speech isn't allowed all the time. If the goal is to induce violence or anger, that should maybe be prevented in some instances.

Who decides, what's "similar to hate speech"? When I burn my property? That's a slippery slope there. Respect is important, but when the intolerant demand respect with threats, that's blackmail.

The court or the people writting the law of course. I'm not just saying anyone's opinion is important.
