Don Cherry could have said his comments about a group I belong to... and I wouldn't ask him to be fired or punished in some way, I just wouldn't listen to him or wouldn't believe in his statement(s)... I can make up my own mind and judgement... and I would simply choose NOT TO BE A VICTIM.
I now the people complaining are perfect - but just in case their not, I think we should all just relax and have a little understanding and forgiveness in our hearts and not jump all over some stupid comment someone else made - I for one am not perfect and I often say things that come out sounding foolish.... but they are just words - you can choose to rise about them and be a champion and not a victim.

We can choose also to not be victims by standing up, pointing out that what Cherry said was wrong and unacceptable, and insist on change for the better. Calling out bull#### and not burying our heads in the sand, or shrugging it off as just one of those things is the right thing to do.
