As I'm writing, there is a coup going on in Turkey, as happened in Egypt a while ago.
I don't think that violence will stop hatred, it will only breed more violence.
But I do believe we have to stop priests that preach hatred, whether in mosques or churches.
We have been too tolerant to people spreading seeds of terrorism.
For better or worse, free speech is a protected right under the First Amendment of the US Constitution although I completely sympathize with the sentiments behind your position.

I'm not so much worried about hatred for it is merely an emotion.

I DO have a problem with action however - particularly that which results in harm to or slaughter of innocent lives, regardless of the motivation behind it.
