And of course you get obnoxious people in any issue. However they tend to not endorse a similar double standard. For example people on either side of the abortion issue will vote based on it, maybe picket, call names etc, but they wouldn't call it unfair if the people on the other side did the same thing.

I'm sure there are some people here and there who do.

However I feel like it's a commonly held opinion amongst atheists that it's fundamentally wrong for everybody else to put someone down for their beliefs or lack thereof, vote based on it, evangalize about it etc, but it is perfectly fine for them to do so.
