It's going to take one hell of a silver tongue to do that with your foot wedged firmly in your mouth.
- joelrunyon 13y agoIt's ironic that people are intolerant of intolerance. I get the 'tit for tat' argument, but if you're trying to get rid of an oppressive opinion by being oppressive, you're not really getting anywhere. You can't really "force" anyone to believe anything. If you have to "make" someone believe something by force, then it doesn't seem like your argument is strong enough to stand on your own (a statement that's applicable to both sides of this debate).
