Since Jesus commanded to turn the other cheek if someone hits us it's easily assessed that if we are being attacked verbally or otherwise, the principle is the same.
If someone is trying to say we don't have to honor all people - they sound like the lawyer trying to question Jesus saying "who is my neighbor?" When Jesus said we are to love our neighbors as ourselves. The neighbor, is the one who showed mercy/compassion/love - He then commanded "go then and do likewise" ...
It's pretty clear in Matthew 5 :: "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven."
