> You will tell these people in free countries what they want
Yes, you will want freedom and liberty, no choice there; when did 'free country' mean otherwise? A "free country" allows people to be free; when people enter that society still bearing the shackles of their non-free origins they are not yet free.
> If they desire otherwise they must have been forced
must? I didn't say this, I said 'some'. If you want to talk about the issue don't misrepresent my words.
> What's the point of freedom if it only applies to things you support?
When you say you are you talking about me or society?
Again, total tolerance will tolerate intolerance. A free society still has rules and enforced motives. The difference is freedom is the goal, not religiously-defined piety.
> There is no factual basis. There is no presumption of innocence, due process; it's just your suspicions and speculation.
What statement(s) are you referring to here? factual basis for which claim?
