If Alec Baldwin called a photographer a watermelon eating n word

3. I have no problem with such name calling if an apology is issued.

As long as it is a true apology and the incident doesn't repeat, I think people should be forgiven. We say things when we are angry. We don't need an informal police state swooping in on every misdemeanor.

For example, I would be vulnerable to being called a whole bunch of things that would also offend others. I would just plain shrug it off. We don't need all this drama and emotional weight. Drop the load. Life is way too short.
