Do not be deceived by the numbers.  Some of us who are deeply
offended have kept silent, because we have been taught that as a
minority our voice will not be heard unless the majority wants it to
be heard.  The rights of the minority, apparently do not count.

The white, christian, male support that Brad gets makes
him feel justified.  The if you don't like it, leave it attitude
(Don't subscribe if you are offended)  does not address the issue.

I'm sure that racism and sexism can be justified by the majority,
since they are not affected, but does that make it right.
