Today’s comment of the week is from **[Rod](https://disqus.com/by/disqus%5F1FaC7QCvu3/?ref=goodoil.news)**[](https://thebfd.co.nz/2019/12/general-debate-129/?ref=goodoil.news#comment-4710771130)

Defining hate speech as speech which is “insulting” or “offensive” means to me that the government’s current waffling about legalising drugs and defining licensed gun owners as somehow responsible for the Christchurch shooting is in itself hate speech because those statements are certainly insulting and offensive to me.
