You are right about tolerance and making derogatory remarks.
Let's do away with any and all offensive/derogatory words that are personally offensive to any and all people from around the world from our vocabulary and start making a big deal of it -demand that those who use these words lose their jobs and/or go to rehab - our friends, family, co-workers, strangers,etc. utters anything or makes an "off-the-cuff" remark that we find offensive-derogatory. Take all those offensive/derogatory words out of the movie/television scripts too because if they are there then we will hear them and actors will have to speak them. Take them out of books too because we don't want to see or read them either. We really need to remove the word fag and other words from the dictionary too that we find offensive or could be used in derogatory ways. Big Brother is alive and well and has plenty of help!What did the beneficiary of the comment say about it? Don't recall his comments being advertised/promoted/reported/splashed across the nation. I'm sure that he too has been guilty of saying derogatory things at one time or another to or about other people. Ditto for others.
