Bad Taste Shouldn't Be Illegal

I posted obliquely a little while ago about the arrest in the Netherlands of a Holocaust denier. In comments, Bowmanguy and I agreed that as odious as these people are, we believe they have a right to free speech. Well, Dutch prosecutors in Amsterdam have just--although, apparently, barely--come down on the side of free speech in a case that might be worse in some ways than Holocaust denial: Holocaust trivialization.
