Unfortunately,  Jean's point needs to be emphasized. Being characterized as a 
hater is dreadful.  Being subject to hate is at least a couple of quanta 
beyond dreadful.  That's why, in my view, the hate speech controversy always 
begins with the wrong  baseline, an inordinate concern with the speaker and speech 
rather than the  subject of such speech and his or her equality (and stigma) 
as a member of the  moral/constitutional community.
