France Decision on Armenian Genocide Denial Bill

While this may be a moral solution to an insane dispute over an event that has happened over a century ago, there is still the topic of freedom of speech being crossed here. Although there are many things in America people could say that could impose punishment, this is still a tough topic to put a speech lock on. This law may still be overlooked anyway because almost the entire nation of Turkey denies that what they have done to the Armenians was considered genocide. A better way to befit this situation is to maybe set a standard or an elaborated definition of the term "Genocide". In my opinion, any organized killing of a plural number of people with the same or similar lifestyle, religion, nationality, ideology, gender, age, etc... would be considered genocide. With an elaborated definition that would qualify the Armenian Genocide, then punishments may be brought upon anybody who denies it. Even then, we are given the thought to deny anything. To this day, there is a group of people dedicated to deny that the Earth is round. I have yet to see anybody imprisoned for denying the Earth's shape. In order to keep peace then maybe people have to forget what may have happened and move on. Today, there is no time to fight over historical opinion when there are human lives are at stake. If a law is passed limiting the thought process of an entire demographic of people, war and rebellion may settle. The punishment is too harsh and the situation is too minor to possibly put lives at stake.
