Are you suggesting people should be intolerant to intolerant people to teach them a lesson?

Call it karma. We say in Chicago, what goes around comes around.
Attitudes of cruelness/cruelty and crudity to others are transparent in most bullies, and there's a good chance that a jury would pick up negativity about the intolerant defendant who now pleads for toleration, just from body language, but almost certainly if he took the stand in his defense. Yes, in many dozens of trials over 33 years, I've seen exactly that happen. (I've always thought that most big-time bullies from the playground grew up to become cops. I guess if they can't make the force, they gravitate toward the GFY board to pick on Jews, Blacks, Arabs, Catholics, etc. This is the nadir of the adult industry, and if the professionals I know in this industry were like the posters here, I'd find it impossible to fight for the values that protect them.)
