I’ve been a little sickened at how many people have not only jumped to the defense of Derek Powazek and Heather Champ, but also jumped at the opportunity to publicly blast Paul Cloutier — whom they almost certainly know nothing about.
There are two sides to every story, and yet almost no one bothered to ask about the other side of this one. Instead, they just blindly took Derek’s side.
I don’t know Derek or Heather, but I have a lot of respect for both of their work. I don’t know Paul, either. Do you? Because it’s one thing to stand by your friends. But it’s another thing entirely to blast someone you don’t know because someone else you don’t know said they deserved to be blasted.
Next time, try a healthy dose of perspective. Try to see both sides of the story. My agnostic self has been called a fence-sitter many times, but days like the past few make me glad I am.
