There's different levels of tolerance.

There's "Happy Happy Joy Joy to the World" tolerance, where the hyper religious zealots or former homophobes are suddenly A-okay inviting the local gay couple over for a BBQ. For whatever reason, they legit turned over a new leaf. Obviously rare.

And then there's the "Live and Let Live" tolerance. This includes the neighbor who does not agree with multiple aspects commonly tied to gay culture, but he/she is fine with them living next door so long as the local gays avoid doing anything repulsive or scandalous. While not exactly proponents for gay rights, these semi-tolerant people can be persuaded to allow positive changes to happen for lgbt by not standing in the way. Their disagreement should not be confused as hatred. They tend to wait for gay communities to cast the first stone before declaring war, which is generally fair.

A close cousin of the above is the "Fuck it, I Give Up" tolerance, which involves someone who actually hates gays, but lacks any real power to push them out of the neighborhood. They can't really do much to demolish local support for gay issues, so they roll with it instead of being branded a villain. Sometimes they can become the "Live and Let Live", but it's rare and usually requires a gay acquaintance who is 0% obnoxious about the homosexuality (often a relative or childhood friend). Unfortunately, these types tend to act like sleeper agents waiting to get local gays expelled from the block first chance available. However, it's important not to confuse them with the "Live and Let Live" people, who are really just moderates willing to be civil (so don't fuck with them). Save your ammo for haters who are ACTIVE about their bigotry.
