tolerance

Originally a beautiful thing but it has been perversely cheapened by the intolerant left.
The left needs to learn tolerance instead of using the word to brainwash and mold everyone into accepting their intolerant way of thinking.Liberals tried to 'force' tolerance which isn't a very tolerant thing to do.

2. In medicine and pharmacology, the situation in which an individual requires larger and larger doses of a drug in order to get the same physical or mental effects.

2. It is possible for a patient to build tolerance to antidepressants, painkillers, and other drugs, requiring a prescription for a larger dose.

3. Tolerance means that I must not resort to violence or slander against a person with whom I disagree. It does not mean that I have to support or agree with your beliefs, regardless of what the radical left has to say about it.

zero tolerance

Politician speak for Zero Intelligence.

Zero Tolerance laws exist to punish the innocent. The guilty already are already fucked so having strict, uniform punishments regardless of the circimstances of the "crime," the persons criminal record and the persons intentions is just stupid.
Anybody who supports zero tolerance policys need to be thrown into a concentration camp until they arent dumbasses. For I have zero tolerance for stupidity.
Being arrested for being DWI even though you are far from being drunk. Mandatory minimum sentences.

As far as school zero tolerance policys go, read around www.zerointelligence.net.

Social Tolerance

The liberal media's definition is you have to like and support it no matter what, not doing so means you're a racist or bigot.

That meaning is wrong. The true definition is you don't like it, support it, or encourage it. It means you just deal with it. It can still piss you off, but you just deal with it. So don't be fooled by the liberal media
South Park (where he tries to get fired from his job for being gay and explains the true definition of Social Tolerance).

Mr. Garrison:

" Look people toleranace doesn't mean you're forced to like it, or support. You just deal with it, it can still piss you off, BUT YOU JUST PUT UP WITH IT OK. Now, Can I please get fired so I can get my $25,000,000".
