Yes, and this answers Mr. Comartin's point. We've always had rules against violence. Even Hitler could not have prosecuted the Holocaust if he hadn't changed real civil rights. Hitler's language could not burn down a synagogue. Hitler's language could not send a Jew to the gas chambers.
He had to change those laws to destroy the real civil rights of Jews. As for this counterfeit civil right not to be offended, that didn't hurt any Jews other than hurting their feelings. Hitler could not have prosecuted the Holocaust in 1933; he had to change the real laws.
I care about protecting real laws against violence. We have them in our Criminal Code. For uttering death threats and actually inciting violence, it's there in the code. I say that in the interests of an open, vigorous, democratic society like Canada's, we should never criminalize mere emotions or feelings or words.
