I do not know what your "J/K" stands for. And as for 'all bigotry is wrong" - wronger words have not been spoken. Not all bigotry, and not always. Everything has its purpose, and is good for something. This necessarily includes bigotry. Therefore there must be uses and situations when bigotry is good, right and proper, and thus not wrong.

J/K is just kidding.


and since you don't believe bigotry is wrong;
any more response by me would be a waste of my time.

Wow. Let's put the brakes on right there, shall we?

According to Merriam-Webster:
Main Entry: big·ot·ry
Pronunciation: 'bi-g&-trE
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural -ries
1 : the state of mind of a bigot
2 : acts or beliefs characteristic of a bigot

Looking up bigot:
Main Entry: big·ot
Pronunciation: 'bi-g&t
Function: noun
Etymology: French, hypocrite, bigot
: a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

Sounds like a liberal iniative to me.
