Read it. And weep.

And to think there are dimwits who would accuse Joe of "choosing" to be as he was... and likewise Abdellah.
GARY. . .do you think we have to put up with the dimwits? Can't we just ignore them?
I know it would take 'strength of character' but I bet we could do it. . .if we made up our minds, if we tried.
Or would that mean we are avoiding reality? Even if they are toxic and harmful to children and all living things. . .? We wouldn't harm or damage them. . . we'd just ignore and avoid them.
Yes? No?
Nice idea, JustinO. But look at what happened when Abdellah tried to ignore them.
Avoid? Ignore?
No, whilst that path can be taken for one's own safety, it does not change anything.
I think we all agree change is needed.
A hard decision, whether or not to engage the person making the comment/argument. Easier to ignore or avoid.
But if we do not at least make it plain that the comment/opinion is just that, an opinion, and it is unwelcome, then we are not doing justice to ourselves and others.
A dilemma.
A choice.
Only you can make it.
Life is full of them.
