'Free speech is fine up to a point.'

If you don't believe in freedom of speech for opinions you dislike then you don't believe in freedom of speech.

That's fine, and there are certainly good ideas against freedom of speech, but you can't deny freedom of speech and claim to support it.

'evil should have no platform.'.

Who gets to decide what is evil?

'As soon as one person begins to espouse views against minority groups attempting to live in peace in another country then he or she risks this sort of treatment.'

They do indeed. I've heard people say this about people on MayDay demonstrations, Carlo Giuliani, Martin Luther King.

You are saying that by *risking* it he *deserved* it. Which is a nonsense.
