The concept of an individuals freedom of speech is one of our strongest values and as such, I for myself can not accept censorship under any circumstances.
But it must follow one single major rule: do NOT put harm on another person, insult, etc.. (Which for sure was done in that post)

Harmful is usually not the transported information. Mostly the chosen way to formulate what your idea is, brings harm. (I feel, his comments provided the total disrespect, decent explanations COULD(!) have given a totally different impression)

Talking about a graveyard is not wrong. Talking about crime or terror is not wrong.
Doing it with disrespect of the dead IS wrong!
Doing this on a declared place of a nations memories (sorry, I don't know the correct title) can not make it better at all, and this is a general requirement, regardless of your own nation or your opinion about the other.

Now what to do with "wrong" statements? Opening up the argument and providing the "better" opinion is that what civilization should have brought us to. Explain WHAT is wrong, WHY is it so, and again WHAT is better.

Kicking the offender out of the forum - right, because the published rules say so
Argumenting against his views - right, because they disrespect the victims
Staying quite and hope everybody will forget - fine, but I feel it unfair to complain when others take up the argument.
