According to the Austrian government - no he does not.

Only as a matter of "freedom of speech" - other than that the two have precious little to do with each other.

Uhm - in America? Or Europe? Mocking christian conservatives is done DAILY - and I dont know too many movie studios, etc. getting burned down.

Lets not be so damn naive here - this man proclaimed the Holocaust didnt happen in AUSTRIA. Not LONDON. Not CANADA. Not AU. Fucking AUSTRIA. Its on the same level as some fool giving the Nazi salute in Germany, and proclaiming "free speech.

This is a ridiculous debate anyway. There is no such thing as freedom of speech - what you say and cannot say is controlled in EVERY government.
