[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2098505, member: 493719"] not sure who you mean [USER=193971]@ianpspurs[/USER] But like you i'm all for understanding other viewpoints. sadly on here as well as in real life 'Tolerance' can sometimes only apply, like respect FROM those who demand it of others, without themselves wishing to give it back, sadly. Something that seems to grow from the social silo's, where no one who disagrees is allowed a voice, so of course those of certain viewpoints grow with an unhealthy idea that because all in their group agree with them, so must the rest of the world, and if they don't they are wrong. Sure i've posted before re this, President Obama, covered it beautifully in one of his speeches. paraphrase.." we must listen to other viewpoints, regardless of if we agree or not, because just maybe we might walk away with a "mmh, they DO make a good point" a view i'm more then happy to take.and then make my own mind up. Have a nice day fella. Hope Julie feels a little better soon. [/QUOTE]
