Give me an example of "hate speech".

Inciting to riot.

Hmmmm....

Inciting to riot: "Inciting a riot applies to a person who organizes,
encourages, or participates in a riot. It can apply to one who urges
or instigates others to riot. It does not apply to someone who merely
advocates ideas or expresses beliefs, if those ideas and beliefs do
not involve advocating violence."

Hate speech: "type of speech which is used to deliberately offend an
individual; or racial, ethnic, religious or other group. Such speech
generally seeks to condemn or dehumanize the individual or group; or
express anger, hatred, violence or contempt toward them."

I suppose you could stretch the definition a little, but to me, they
are two wholly different issues.
