Should racist remarks be subject to criminal prosecution?

If they are directed at a person then yes. There is no need for racist remarks. There are any number of ways to insult someone without resorting to racism. As there is no excuse for it and no reason to need it then it should pose no problem for anyone if it should be deemed a crime. To suggest that restricting any speech risks restrictions on all speech is a very large exaggeration.

Racism is evil, there is no two ways about it. Nothing good has ever come from it, or ever will.
