Just to expand on that a little:

Two people are having a heated discussion in public. You don't know what they are arguing about, but because they obviously have different opinions about whatever it is, you just assume that one of them must be a "stupid person".

Is that correct?

Not necessarily. Reasonable people can disagree.

You chose to speak out against gay marriage on Facebook and then you were offended by the reactions of the people you offended. You're stupid.

Opinions that are not socially acceptable exist. You would have encountered the same reaction if you had posted talking about how you think blacks shouldn't be allowed to marry whites or how women shouldn't be allowed to vote.

You're free to have those opinions. And other people are free to express their dislike for you and your opinions.

Where did I say I was offended?

I said that the reaction of those who didn't like my opinion could be classified as "bullying", I was viciously and verbally attacked by a handful of libs who seemed to be intolerant of opinions that differed from their agenda. It was actually kind of fascinating to see how they were feeding off each other in their attacks against me, with the self-congratulating comments they were giving each other after each subsequent shot.

Offended? Hardly. I was amused at the level of hypocrisy being displayed by their intolerance towards somebody who doesn't have the same level of tolerance as they preach.

You classified the response as "bullying" and a "vicious attack." Seems like you were offended.

And again, stupidity is not owed tolerance. You chose to voice your opinion. Others voiced theirs.

Why is it "stupid" to oppose SSM?

Is it stupid to oppose gun control? Abortion? Legalization of pot?

Are you under the impression that all issues have equally valid arguments on both sides?

Are you going to answer every question with a question?

I was not offended. So typical of you to tell people what they think or feel, when in fact that is NOT what they are thinking or feeling.

Your lack of self-awareness is out there again for everybody to see by your insistence that a person with a differing opinion from yours is "stupid". Since your opinion differs from mine, does that make you stupid?

I guess any two people who have different opinions from each other should just try to come to a common understanding as follows:

"You're stupid!"

"No, you're stupid!"

"No, YOU'RE STUPID!!"

"I KNOW YOU ARE, BUT WHAT AM I???"

"STUPID FACE!!!!!"

Another dozen pages of Liberals' hypocrisy. They say everyone should accept their differing opinions, yet they don't want to accept anyone else's.

No, only one is stupid. Whichever one that doesn't agree with BL's personal feelings on any topic.

Who decides which opinions should always be met with disdain? Are you the arbiter of that?

Are you choosing to turtle up instead of explaining why it's stupid to oppose SSM?

That seems odd since you believe in it so mightily.
