...anyways, as I said...I’m going to leave the specific JKR debate for others

but I was very interested in other examples in the debate that James posted because had actually been ‘cancelled’...or had they..?...hmmmmm...we rarely get ‘complete stories’ with no slanting is another issue...
Again though I agree about it being a tiny minority - the problem is that people are willingly blinkered to that small, but very loud, minority because its singing from the same opinion-sheet.

Like I said above... People all too willing to jump on people and hold them to account for their OPINIONS, whilst refusing to hold others to account for their BEHAVIOUR.
