That is true. If someone gets enough death threats they soon learn to sympathise with others who get death threats.
Do you get death threats, or am I reading this post wrong??? :?
 
Sadly many people do not realise when they are being intolerant. It seems that the majority of bigots I have personaly met, view themselves as being very liberal and tolerant. We as humans tend to believe that what we say and do, will be viewed by others in exactly the same concept we say it. Most intolerance does not begin as malice. It is the result of our thinking, that we know what the other person intends.

Sadly, that is seldom true in human communication. We may be aware that other people speak a different language, yet we fail to see that even in speaking with people of the same language, things are not interpreted exactly the same.

Communication is not just saying words. It is the exchange of ideas. We need to verify what idea is understood, not just what we say. It is very important that we ask sufficient questions, to know what others understand about what we say.
