Don't take it personally! The problem when you start talking about that stuff is that there will always be someone who doesn't agree with you, or even worse, has an opinion you can't respect because it goes totally against what you believe. I can't respect racist people personally, does that make me intolerant? Maybe, but I think it's just human nature.
We have people coming from all kinds of backgrounds on the forums, and we're sure to disagree on lots of things, so why even talk about them when you know you will just open a can of worms. I'm not only talking about your post, but about the series we had two weeks ago.
But yeah, nobody listen to what I'm saying anyway, lol.
