In some countries like the UK, Genocide denial is legal, in some countries all Genocide denail is illegal, in some countries however Holocaust denail is illegal, but denial of other genocides remains legal. What do you think of these double standards, and what do you think of this type of legislation in general. Personally I am opposed to them, the laws themselves are often a source of suspicion and may worsen the problem they try to stop.

A question I often wonder about is what would happen if a holocaust denier was asked his opinion, either in everyday conversation of under oath, would they be forced to lie, if so this would amount to holocaust denial being not only a speech crime but also a thought crime. Before anyone asks I am not a denier myself but belive that noone should be forced to believe things by the state, and not believing it being punishable by inprisonment.
