There's a huge difference between disagreeing with someone's beliefs and insulting them, threatening them, and harrassing them. The right has become one giant lynch mob body controlled by one brain: Fox News. Anybody on the left who tries to speak his or her mind is instantly discredited, ridiculed, stripped of respect, and harrassed. Nevermind that these people are American citizens with the right to speak their minds.
And for the record, I support the right of my political enemies to speak whatever is on their minds. I'll disagree with them, but I'm going to disagree respectfully. Anything else would be hypocritical.
