a similar thing happened a while back in Skokie, Illinios I think. There was a big deal about the KKK rallying in a predominantly jewish area. The KKK was allowed to rally, but they didn't because they feared the backlash that would occur. It might have been Neo Nazis though.

I think he should certainly be allowed to express his views as according to the freedom of speech, but the problem is, not all countries have that freedom legally. A country has a right to not allow freedom of speech because of their sovereignty, so therefore, there rules should be respected. It's like marijuana laws. it may be legal to smoke in some countries, but if you bring it to the USA, you have to know that you aren't protected by a law that allows you the freedom to use it, just as this guy wasn't protected by a law to protect his freedom of speech.
