@masterspear "one article does not constitute the right to be cruel to others" what you said there is exactly why I don't think you read the article, nor do I believe you understand what tolerance really is. Tolerating a person who exhibits harmful behavior and/or discrimination/hate is socially irresponsible. "ah well ya see I'm tolerating the homophobe as a person but I'm not tolerating his hate." This makes no sense. the article isn't telling you it's okay to punch people that hate you; it's suggesting what responsible adults have known all along: Bad behavior shouldn't be tolerated, and the people behind hateful or harmful actions should be held responsible. See how I didn't jump from tolerance to cruelty? There are more ways to react to hate than tolerance or face-punching.
