I for one think Manson is brilliant. People talk shit about him and rant and rave about him but they don't realize that all they are doing is spreading his name and giving him even more attention. That's pretty much what he wants. As far as being tolerant of other people, I am to a point. If someone bashes me or my ideals enough then I will do what I need to do. I accept the fact that there are many different ideals and opinions in the world and mine is just one more added to the mix. I listen to what the other person has to say and I expect the same.. if we still disagree then we'll just agree to disagree. Some people are scared of what they don't understand. Alot of people don't understand Manson or the whole "goth" thing. I'm not "goth" so I don't pretend to understand, but I don't hate on people because they are. I actually like Manson's music and his shows are fucking awesome. In the same breath though I usually end up in a fight because I don't look like the rest of the crowd there and they think I'm invading their territory or something so the knife cuts both ways.
As far as a quote from talon: " I enjoy beating the shit out of someone who disagrees with me" that isn't a right. It is your right to have a different opinion and hopefully you mean beating verbally, if you mean physically then more than likely you'll be in the slammer with that attitude.
