If you notice, I didn't say they were right, I said that I understood why they were sensitive and that in time I figured they would moderate. I have no idea how you got from my post to a presumption that I support what they do. Odd. Anyway, until they start killing people over it, or until Jerry does, neither are "just like" Nazis. Still hyperbole on your part.

you put people in jail for words, you are a nazis. pure and simple. Er, no. If you arrest and kill someone and their family for being Jewish, or gay, or left-wing, then you may be a Nazi. You put people in jail for words, chances are you're an angry policeman required to police a demonstration. Or maybe a fundamentalist Islamic state. Maybe Stalin. Or indeed Tony Blair, or so he wishes: news.bbc.co.uk But that wasn't a unique Nazi habit, nor even the one people would most associate with them.
