Ugh...

I know this is an unpopular sentiment these days, but I think he should not have apologized. But everyone is terrorized by the everyone's-both-an-oppressor-and-a-victim mentality.

I think everyone spends entirely too much time apologizing. We are allowed to insult people, especially when it wasn't intentional. We are allowed to make mistakes and have a past. I don't know a heckuva lot about Mr. Rainbow, but I think everyone should get back to living their own life. And damn, I wish people would start teaching the old "sticks and stones" rhyme again. There are real problems and injustice in the world; let's save the drama for that stuff.

PS The Advocate became insufferable and I cancelled my subscription 10 years ago. I can be proudly gay without being taught how to think properly.
