Yes but that is not the government actively engaging, that is the people organizing and making their own decision.If (the generic) you do not tolerate another person's expressed intolerance, meaning that you allow them to hold their opinions and beliefs in peace, then you are as intolerant as the person you accuse? Would you not agree?
No one here is saying that people should not be allowed to their opinions or their beliefs.
They aren't? I'm seeing a lot of arguments here that are saying exactly that.
You have every right to be a racist and a bigot. I have every right to criticize you for those beliefs.
But do you have a right to organize and target me, threaten my customers, threaten my advertisers, threaten my associates, threaten my employees, disrupt my business, and harm me physically and materially because you don't like my beliefs? How do you equate that with tolerance?
Neither of us mentioned the government in this context though. Do you think people should have the right to disrupt a person's business and materially and/or physically attempt to harm him purely because he expressed a view they don't like?
