Intimidation?

Up on Focus on the Family's website, there's an article titled Gay Activist Intimidation Tactics Increasing. One part of the article is a lot of complaining about stolen signs, nasty messages, and such--which always happens on both sides of any hot button issue. But then it says:
"This is the fringe of the homosexual movement, of course," he said. "But then you have the organized activists which try to intimidate anybody who says, for example, that homosexuals can leave the lifestyle."
This reminds me of claims that opponents of New Age woo are prosecuting a "new inquisition." As I recently explained, even proponents of conversion therapy admit it's pretty ineffective. For them to hold up signs saying "change is possible" and then make the admissions they do in private is dishonest. Such dishonesty should be opposed.

And then get this:
"Usually the people who are screaming the loudest about tolerance," he said, "are the most intolerant of all."
Next thing you know, the neo-Nazis will be complaining about how intolerant people are of them.
