First, as my own disclaimer, let me state that I have not read any of the posts, not even your first one...just a few sentences of the issue and that your wrote.

I want to say that being "tolerant" is not tolerance of a person's actions. Tolerance is not for things...it's for people. Many, dare I say most, people today do not understand this. We can be tolerant of people, allow them their POVs etc, but do not have to condone their POVs.

Modern free speech protestors imposed "political correctness" upon us to silence anyone at anytime when they wanted to...and it is (was) used anytime anyone disagreed with what THEY said or thought or felt. I believe this time of "pc" speech oppression is over...and those who insist that anyone who feels differently than they do is some kind of "--phobic" are indeed, themselves "phobic". Just my POV
