That's incorrect.
He has the right of free speech - whether that free speech breaks any hate laws is another matter.
He has the right to hold his beliefs - if those beliefs are upsetting, annoying, offensive to others, it doesn't mean he should be gagged.
He has the right to lawfully voice his opinions and beliefs and we have the right to tell him he's how utterly wrong he is in those beliefs.
Such nonsense should be held up to scrutiny and challenged and debunked at every opportunity, not gagged and driven underground.
