Straw man (which is all that can be expected of you). I'm not talking about drug use, and have never advocated drug use on this thread. Instead, I'm talking about decriminalizing drug use and possession, which is different. Drug decriminalization is a platform of several political parties, including some factions of major political parties, e.g. the Republican Liberty Caucus, whose official position is this: "We recognize the harm that drug abuse causes, but also that the ‘drug war’ has been ineffective and has led to terrible abuses of personal liberty. We favor flexible alternatives at the state and community level to combat the harmful aspects of drug use."
I'm tolerating you quite well. I haven't had you imprisoned, caned, or forced to wear a dunce cap. That's tolerance.
Wow, it means you won't bring the force of government down on me for exercising free speech? What are you, some sort of anarchist?
You have confused "tolerance" with "acceptance". Intolerance would be whining to the moderator to have you removed for being so wrong.
Me and Jim Robinson, both, then, I guess.
Straw man (which is all that can be expected of you).
You called me a bigot. I specifically asked how, kindly using the criteria that you laid out. Only in your world is that a straw man. Again, just because answering the question will make you look foolish, doesn't make something a straw man. Answer the question concerning bigotry! Who is being intolerant of you and how?
As you blathered on about having a political movement, I assume that is what you consider to be the target of bigotry. How? Anyone who doesn't ACCEPT your political views is a bigot? So you're a bigot for not accepting mine? So everyone that won't conform to someone else's opinion is a bigot?
By misusing the term bigot to refer to any and all political disagreements, you strip it of any real meaning.
Intellectually backed into a corner, you revert to calling people "bigot", and then when called on your misuse of the language, you scream "straw man". What's next holding your breath?
Its funny that you only make sense, when you are trying to be ridiculous. Yes, you've hit on the principle of tolerance. An anarchist would burn down your house. I just make your arguments look foolish on a public forum in the arena of ideas. See the subtle difference?
You must have a victim complex to cry "bigot" when people won't agree with you about legalizing drug use. Poor, poor, you.
