Description
I can and do let people say whatever they want about my beliefs and tastes and whatnot.They can disagree and call my beliefs stupid.
They can say that my beliefs are illogical. They can say that my arguments and stamps and deviations are total BS if they want. That is their opinion and they have a right to hate anything they want.
But what I WON'T tolerate is when it comes to outright harassment towards me or any other deviant -- even if I don't know them. There is freedom of expression and difference of opinion, and then there is harassing and insulting people because their beliefs are different. Witch-hunting people and bashing on them-- I don't care WHO they think they are or WHAT they believe or "major" in , that is NOT love and tolerance that they demand from everyone else.
Practice what you preach. That goes for everyone.
EDIT: I should've also added that I don't pay attention to failtrolls who try to be cute in this situation. /EDIT

I freaking hate when people try to pull the "freedom of expression" card to justify harassing others.

Your so true on this, even though we have freedom of speech there has to be a line somewhere and that would be harassment.

I accept constructive criticism and things like that for my writing's or drawings...but if they're downright being rude to me and making fun of my writing style or drawing styles I just consider them a troll. I don't care if they hate the things I like yaoi, hetero, K-Pop, writing, whatever. I'll like the things I like and ignore the haters 
If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Really cheesy I know

"There is freedom of expression and difference of opinion, and then there is harassing and insulting people because their beliefs are different."
Exactly. There are people who believe there is no line- it's 'free speech' to give hate-filled speeches and 'freedom of expression' when hurling bricks though the windows of a place of worship.

While this is a good point however I am sick of so-called-victims who refer to people who comment with things like: I disagree,
or'' This devation is a violation of copyright infrigment please remove it'' as ''harassment'' which is obvious not. Another thing is when you post something extremely offensive you are going to get a few people who don't like it. I have seen people post up journals making Death Threats towards Homosexuals and another person who wished the Nazi's killed more Blacks and Jews, when a lot of people got angry at them saying it was racist, homophobic, hateful, Nazi-like, sad, low and rather dumb they screamed that they were harassed for their Opinions. So I just want to say if you are being made fun of for you're stamps I would say yes that's bad. But if its just people that disagree with you're belief/faith/stamps then..thats not on the same level as harassment. Unless they call you terrible names and mock you.

Well, I personally can tolerate anything, but I accept and respect that many can't.

You are a faggot, your stamp is ugly as shit and your opinion makes as much sense as Africans in the Antarctica.
Can I have a medal now?

I don't let it bother me. I come to the internet armed for bears (or trolls). And it's an important exercise to not let one's feathers get ruffled by strangers you'll never meet.

Yikes! Sounds … like someone has been annoying you. :/
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, they have. Not harrassing me in particular, but harrassing my friends, and I mean HARASS. I could send you a note if you want, you could try and help me with something?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd help any way I could. As long as it doesn't involve harassment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol, no, it won't involve any of that. I got something better in mind.
