I don't mind them having their own opinions but they're not sharing anything reasoned, just parroting some basic lines to appease the fan base. They practically all said the same thing word-for-word. One of 'em said something about wishing she wouldn't do this on twitter - that's about the only part I completely agree with. She's not a stupid person... I find it hard to believe that she didn't know the reaction before she posted... so to do it on Twitter seems a bit like bear baiting and I have to wonder if it was partly intentional. Obviously that's not to excuse the abuse but, surely, no intelligent person could say "I thought I could post a nuanced discussion of a sensitive issue on Twitter and it would go well" with a straight face.
