Reply #21: Well said Q.

[Hugin]

I have the difficult task of being a relatively conservative
(note lower case "c") person with a liberal mind. I suppose that
makes me a moderate. However, I am very aware that for me to live
the life of my choosing without interference. I must grant others
the freedom to live their lives without interference from me.

It's a little, all but forgotten, thing in modern times called
tolerance.

Currently, I'm feeling guilt in my tolerance though. Maybe if
I'd acted sooner those who are currently interfering with our
pursuit of happiness wouldn't have gained power.

Not sure how to deal with it.

I should have said, "No." Much louder.
