^ You make a good point, we can’t change people’s mentality overnight. No law can do that. But like Martin Luther King Jr said, and I’m paraphrasing here: you may not be able to change a man’s heart, but you can regulate his behaviour, i.e. you can’t make racists love black people, but you can stop them from lynching African Americans.

Similarly, you can’t moderate extremists overnight, but you can take away the cover of the blasphemy law. Like I said before, if someone is engaging in hate speech, by all means take them to court and let a judge decide their fate but don’t turn it into a holy offense. It should be a judicial matter.

Beautifully said. Love the way you break things down.
