Those who don't respect the rights of others

It seems that all you have to do is mention "respect" of others, whether it be their religious beliefs or their human rights and you get attacked.

A couple weeks ago I posted: "Respect The Religious Beliefs of Others" and I got a very nasty comment that contained a link to an antireligious site.

Yesterday I posted "Respecting The Rights of Others - Human Rights" and this time I get a mocking comment from someone who (according to their profile) just joined Blogger - I guess to make their comment on my site. As if Human Rights were a joke. Ask someone in North Korea or Pakistan if Human Rights are a joke. Ask someone who survived the Holocaust or the Ethnic Cleansing in the Balkans if Human Rights are a joke.

The bigoted idiots who attack the idea of respect for others, who attack the idea of tolerance for different viewpoints, are too stupid to realize that they are putting themselves in danger. If Human Rights are lost then these clowns will be the first to get thrown in jail or lined up against a wall and shot by some fascist who doesn't want any expression of opposing views.

We can't afford to ignore the rights of anyone. Suspend one man's rights and you suspend everyone's.
