Bigoted - you have shown that you cannot tolerate someone whose views differ from your own. There is ample evidence that men who view child pornography of the type that Westerfield viewed are in fact pedophiles. My view that he is a pedophile based on the evidence presented at the trial and your view that he is not a pedophile, are differences of OPINION, but NOT that I am a bigot for holding the views I do. You on the other hand, seem to think everyone whose opinions differ from your own must be bigoted.

"Bigot" has little to do with "views." It is used to describe hatred of a group and those associated with the group on the basis of otherwise inconsequential factors such as skin color.

I am firm in my opinion I don't HAVE to tolerate certain views the way YOU mean (I think YOU mean that you have to be honored for being stupid).

Anyone who tries to marginalize the extent of this horrid crime has my utter contempt, with extreme prior prejudice.

No, that's not why I called your comments bigoted. You seem to think that those who think DW innocent are somehow supporting kiddy porn and pedophiles. That is an intolerant and bigoted remark.
