I am tired of people posting hateful things which then get funneled to my friends list.  I am tired of the hate toward people who are homosexual, I am tired of the hate toward people who choose to exercise their rights to free speech,  and I am tired of the hate toward people who have religious beliefs that other people disagree with. 

It doesn't matter which side you are on, I don't want to hear about how much more right than the other side you think you are.  People on all sides of every issue believe what they believe because they are SMART people with DIFFERENT but not inferior values.  And that's okay.

I really just wish people would speak nicely about other people, and realize that just because someone disagrees with you isn't a reason to act as if they are stupid, or childish, or petty, or a bigot, or whatever other epithet comes to mind at the moment.

Even if you think these things about the person you disagree with, just don't say it.  You're not helping anyone, including yourself.  If you can't make arguments in a way that avoids offending your audience, just don't make them at all.  It only makes things worse for everyone involved.
