But I find I have far less tolerance of human stupidity and ignorance in regard to animal welfare, the longer I'm involved with rescues and animal charities.

Once they've put the cones out they need to to wait for the shovel instructions to arrive. One thing at a time.

More tolerant, priorities change and I don't get worked up about things I have no influence over.

That's up to you. I'm just posing a thought.

True it hatched thinking about the railing at things by young people and the railing at things by older people and wondering whether we become less intolerant and whether there is a middle phase of tolerance.
