I appreciate the demonstration that this is not a straw man.

Tolerating someone with a different idea in no way involves agreeing with them or withholding your thoughts about their ideas. People deserve tolerance, not ideas. Ideas should be scrutinized thoroughly and discarded if they don't stand up to critical examination. You're not asking for tolerance, you're asking for no one to say anything that might hurt your fee fees.

Are you high on something right now?

To answer your last question first, I am sober and clear thinking. Did I misunderstand, that you only want the information, and would not discriminate against a store which has a sign which says “no gays allowed”?

I would agree, that we should be allowed to criticize and disagree with others. And believing that someone is wrong, is not being intolerant. This would largely be my point against those who carelessly and thoughtlessly throw around the term bigot as an emotional polemic, when it is untrue. I have been thinking about a post to Facebook lately though. I think that the tendency to want to boycott, destroy and have fired; those who you disagree with; is getting out of hand, and is not good for a free society. This is very much becoming bigotry and is happening on both sides of a number of issues.
