Should Letterman's joke about Palin's daughter's rape be considered hate speech?

"single wide?"

Classic liberal chauvinism. I love when you guys talk, Darwin, it shows us all who you really are proud of being.
 
No...

It's only hate speech if:

1) a white persons says something derogatory about another race or gender

or

2) A conservative person - says something derogatory about a more liberal person.

It's perfectly OKAY for people saying things UNKIND and INACCURATE and "FUNNY", in the other direction...

such as it is here.
 
I don't know what Letterman said but it won't lead to murders like Rush, Hanity and Oriely words do. They stir the pot and it leads to murder. They pratice hate speech and preach to the mentally ill choir.
 
What Letterman said was wrong.
He admitted it.
He apologized.
It should be over.

That said, he never mentioned rape. His joke implied the promiscuity, not rape, of an eighteen year old girl.
