Zero Tolerance

by Roy Maynard

Cover Story | Tolerance has its limits. Just ask Ron Greer--firefighter, pastor, and community activist. When Mr. Greer criticized homosexuality, City Hall suspended him. He couldn't even conduct a church event without being shouted down. Today, he's engaged in a struggle for his own religious freedom and freedom of speech--a liberty that increasingly is coming under assault from the forces of "tolerance" nationwide.
