Seems reasonable enough

Second, unlike your putrid filthy no-good communist cesspool of a nation; America has a strong attachment to free speech; it is not illegal to offer an opinion of what you would like to see happen to people. In America I could say that I would not object to people being killed and as long as I do not openly make a statement that leads to imminent lawlessness or constitutes a criminal conspiracy to commit an actual crime this is protected free speech.

I was thinking about the various UN laws and treaties that came about as a result of the Nuremburg trials I think there was one concerning genocide that the USA signed up to and ratified. Now the US constitution states:
"This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof;
and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding." So if the US has entered such a treaty and genocide is now illegal under US law then advocating killing masses of people because of their race etc is advocating breaking US law, seems simple enough to me. Maybe O' Sullivan Bere can offer a more legally knowledgeble opinion.

Third, I am not convinced that U.S. law allows for the punishment of a site owner for the comments of people made on his site. I heard the Supreme Court recently made such a determination? Maybe O'Sullivan can address this issue?

As indeed he seems to have done
