Spucatum tauri: What liberals really mean when they say "tolerance"

Recently, a Christian group known as "BattleCry for a Generation" held a rally billed as a "reverse rebellion" against the excesses of pop culture. Where'd they hold it? San Francisco, the bastion of moral fortitude in the West.

According to Time Magazine (another stalwart of moral responsibility), "Organizers say they're sending a message to the outside world that teens are sick of the sex, drugs and violence that permeates their culture." How many youths attended this radical fringe event? More than 25,000.

Democratic State Assemblyman Assemblyperson Mark Leno wasn't thrilled that this happened in his district. According to Time Leno told "counter-protesters that he found the BattleCry participants 'obnoxious' and 'disgusting' and that 'they should get out of San Francisco.'" Needless to say, it didn't take Leno long to realize what he had said. Quickly backtracking, Leno "issued a statement saying he regretted that some had interpreted his remarks to mean he didn't think people of different beliefs should come to San Francisco; the city was, he said, a 'beacon of acceptance and love of all people.'"

Ahhh, we can feel the love Mark. It's written all over your excrement-laden press release.
