Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil.
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

Exactly, sitting by and doing nothing (tolerating everything) merely allows evil to continue.
For one example of many : If you tolerate hate speech, you approve of hate speech.
We need to actively move society in a better direction, we need to stand up and say something when the intolerable occurs.
A very interesting point. I think a distinction should be made between tolerating peoples' words and beliefs and their actions, my guess is that Mr P was talking only about the former. Having said that there is a grey area between words and actions which occurs when people incite others to commit crimes and in that situation I agree with you completely.
