  So what? We are talking about law here, not about opinion, unanimous
or not.

  Just because people unanimously detest racist opinions doesn't mean
they should be outlawed any more than eg. if people unanimously detested
atheist opinions, or the opinions of the Westboro Baptist Church.

  Everybody is entitled to their opinions, and the right to express
one's opinions should be unalienable, no matter how much you hate those
opinions. The moment we start banning certain opinions, we are entering
a totalitarian form of government where thought crimes are criminalized.
No thanks.
