Personal discrimination based on my beliefs I have been persecuted for, depending on your definition. Most of what was persecution should have been establishing the framework for social contract interactions, but can be tinged with so much emotion it becomes bigoted and inflammatory, but I chalk that up as the cost of conversation. You have to risk being offended to engage socially.
What would be your definition of 'persecution', then? If you feel you've been on the receiving end of it, I think it would be important to say specifically what you mean.
I've been denied work and housing based on my perceived religion; did you mean something like that?
