You don't know freedom and tolerance unless you are American.
Long time ago it was true, but today I doubt it.
Tolerance is based on acceptance and respect to other person. While US and western EU are trying to convince you are tolerant person only if you share other people views and beliefs. This is like in Islamic countries where you can have only one view... supporting their religion, but in US it is in opposite direction.
Today in US and part of EU we have homo-fanatics that are screaming about tolerance as long as you won't say you are sharing and supporting their dissimilarity, while simple acceptance is enough to show you are tolerant person.
Taking lessons from eastern countries ruled by fanatics and 50 years of Russian occupation of my country... I can say that freedom is not based on choice like you may hear it in TV.
The ability to shape and keep your own views is what makes you free, choice comes later, when you are starting to see choice or feel a need to make thing different than other people.
While in US and not only there, gaystapo is trying to force people to "update" their views, because anyone with conservative views on world and life is wrong, homophobic, religious person... they are forgetting that every person has right to keep their views even if they may look obsolete today.
If gays can call people, that do not share their views, homophobic they are insulting those people... any phobia is mental disorder, so calling someone crazy just because they disagrees with gays views is total lack of tolerance.
So much for freedom and tolerance in US and western part of EU from my perspective.
