Same here, as I don't listen to Lostprophets anymore. Too bad, I really enjoyed Liberation Transmission.
I'm totally ok with everyone who has to critisise Vik. My point is, hate towards him is exactly the same, as his hate towards gay people.
Pacifism means to oppose war and violence when resolving a conflict, there is no war going on here. Just the masses speaking their minds and voicing their disgust at vik's comments. But in this case being tolerant of his views would be almost the same as taking a passive approach. Now take what I just said in my last sentence and apply it to say a person with considerate power saying "all blacks are subhuman" or something to that effect and the line between the two is blurred.It seems the key thing people are doing is assuming that tolerance is equivalent to pacifism. Two very different things.

I suppose I should clarify. What I mean is that being an advocate for tolerance does not mean you have to be accepting of other intolerant views, or passively accept that other people hold these views.
