How can someone lose your respect in one sentence or less?

Post examples, if you like.

One sentence that would make me lose respect? Hmmm....

"I am a liberal."

"I voted for Obama."

Yeah, either of those would do it.

That's all it takes? :P

If they cannot speak a sentence without inserting one or more 'curse words'.

Guess you'd hate me. I can swear a lot and not realise. I manage to avoid doing it in front of kids though. For me, that's the big no-no.
 
One thing I forgot to say is that if I give you respect, you've earned it from me. Which is why I don't tend to lose respect for people - because a lot of them, I don't have any to begin with.

If you screw me over, and I lose respect for you, then I don't think it's ever possible for you to ever get it back.
 
I wouldn't lose respect for someone simply over them swearing a lot. That seems a lil harsh to me.

But to answer the question .. not sure that I could totally lose respect for, or judge someone solely based on one lone sentence. :P

If I hear anything racist, bullying, outright lies though .. that is another whole different story..
 
Anyone who reveals that they don't really care about their pets.

Anyone who speaks internet lingo in real life.

Anyone who thinks bikers are all bad people.
