Is Seattle being over hyped?

I am not even religious but I have witnessed this and this it's awfully ironic how they behave this way. God forbid you have a differing opinion on gay marriage, abortion, etc, you're in for a whipping.

Neither side is truly tolerant, but it does make me fall off my chair in laughter every time I hear the "we're tolerant" from liberals. That's repeated ad-nauseam here. Some of my liberal friends are at least honest enough to say "hell no we aren't tolerant." Liberals are more tolerant with regard to gays and gay issues. That's it. I especially get a chuckle over how they deride/dehumanize all black or female conservatives.

I'm an extremist moderate. Both sides make my brain hurt at times.
