In some places men from the government will show up at your house to punish you for going online and saying gamer words.

What? I don't see your point then. Hate criminals should obviously should be punished for using slurs.

Unkind words shouldn't be a crime in and of themselves - that includes slurs.
It makes sense to criminalize stated threats of violence or persistent targeted harassment, but generally free societies should err on the side of not criminalizing speech if possible.

My nation and the elders of my family historically responded to proponents of hate ideologies with hot lead and HE artillery shells. Letting them get off with nothing more than a minor criminal record is an extremely generous offer.
