          Okay. You’re right. What I said was kneejerk and insensitive and I should do better.

          While there are some serious allegations have come to light, it’s all unproven. I bought into media hype, not an excuse, but what happened.

          He was a person that had people that cared about him - he likely needed help and wasn’t able to get it in time. I’ll reserve my judgement until these things that were said about him are proven false or true.

          Thank you for calling me out. Apologies.

                Not gonna lie, you sort of restored my faith in humanity today, which wouldn’t have happened without the comment you started with. Sometimes being able to change your mind has more impact than starting off right.

                  I am glad that you were able to find some good in this today. I’m sorry it was this, because I was a total cunt - but, glad you regained some hope.

                  I probably wouldn’t have thought anything about what I had said if I wasn’t called out… And honestly that kinda frightens me. I don’t think I’m a hateful person - but I made a super shitty conclusion about someone I didn’t know and I just assumed it was true… And that’s hateful. I don’t want to be that.

                  I guess what I am thinking is there’s probably a lot of other people out there that do the same thing, all it takes is the right person to call them out.

                  The person who replied to me wasn’t a dick to me - when they had every right to be. They just pointed out what I was doing and that made me look at it differently, so again, thanks for calling me out.
