The “pro-tolerance” people are cons and the people who unwittingly support them do so in the belief that they are supporting freedom when in reality they are suppressing freedom. Why can’t I make fun of the god and prophet of Islam? Why must I suffer Islamists’ oppression by being forcefully silenced? Wouldn’t it be better (and true tolerance) if the rabid islamists would instead allow people to speak and simply ignore the people who make fun of their god/prophet/religion/clothes?
“Sheep in wolve’s clothing” would be an understatement here – it is another case of religion attempting to subjugate the masses in pretence of freedom and harmony.

Very true. A plee for tolerance sounds nice but what is the cost to democratic freedom?
Religious groups are finding common ground in ‘heresy’ laws which stifle free speech. All in the name of ‘tolerance’.
