But if he is talking about his rights in his own home- no one should be forced to have people in their own home who they cannot abide. The racist should not be forced to have persons of whatever race he doesn't like in his home. The religious, should not be forced to associate with others, etc, etc. I would argue that they are missing out if they choose isolation, but I think it is their right. What I do not think is right is fomenting hatred against another group of people that begets violence or persecution. I think that is wrong. But I also think it is equally wrong to tell people who they should have in their homes. That is an unacceptable intrusion. In the middle ground, though, lies the problem. Because I think it is hard to keep your distaste personal.
