Yet you have said things like, "I would exercise my right to speak against it. And I will not tolerate it, either." These statements suggest that "not tolerating" something involves more than speaking against it. And since the primary definition of "tolerate" is along the lines of "to allow the existence, presence, practice, or act of without prohibition or hindrance; permit," it follows that "not tolerating" something means either not to permit it or to impose retribution for it.
We're just trying to figure out exactly what you mean when you say hate speech or offensive speech should not be tolerated. If we're misunderstanding you, just say so. If you have "already shown" how you would show your "distaste," you must have done it somewhere other than in this discussion.
