Hate speech in private, as long as it doesn't advocate specific and illegal action toward a particular group, shouldn't be regulated at all. That said, while saying "all (insert group here) should all be killed" is allowed, if not in poor taste, making plans to actually follow through is considered (and rightly so) conspiracy to commit a crime.
Same goes for such speech in public. Getting your point across is one thing, inciting action against a specific group is entirely different.
You are free to say whatever you want; you're not free to bring harm to others.
