Also - if you're going to assert that everyone is entitled to his own opinion, then that must include those who disagree with you.
Oh please. The victim card played by pro-war people after they've disrespected anti-war people is very tiresome.

Someone pointing out that you've disrespected him or her is not impinging on your freedom to disagree--it's pointing out that you're either being rude to someone or silencing debate.

If you can't differentiate between disrespecting someone and just wording your different political opinion in a polite manner, I don't really know how to make it more clear.
