Ok, so I posted an article. There is allot more to the story, but I don't want to post a sensitive subject like that here... I just wanted to vent about hypocritical people.

I put a quick few lines up there about it then the link and article was below the quick liners... Geesh, I love that people are passionate and opinionated but chastising someone over their views is childish!!! This girl I went to school with and was good friends with back then chastised a new friend of mine's view. GRR!

Accept that everyone has a voice, everyone has individual thoughts and opinons... accept that not everyone is going to agree! So agree to disagree!

Ok that is my vent... I think I'm done!

My question is... what should I do? I posted that I appreciated their views and not offended nor wanting to offend. Also that I was sorry if one another was offended by one another, that their thoughts are OK and that I appreiciate their thoughts! (is that ok? I was also thinking of personally messaging them about it and apologizing for that persons close minded childishness... would that be too much?)

So I didn't get much housework done because I was thinking, writing in my facebook ACK!

Ok, have to go do dinner and get some stuff done!!!

I think that a part of being a grown up is accepting that people will have a different opinion than your own (I know you know this). I try to ignore any "drama" and not encourage more.

Good luck.

I would just leave it how it is and not worry. It will go away on its own. We are adults and I agree with Kimberley try to ignore it and not encourage more.

Ahhh Facebook. Its sort of an amazing place! I agree with the other comments here, everyone has a right to express their own opinions. I doubt either friend of yours would look badly on you for the comments posted by the other friend, so just let it go away on its own.

I would just let it be, unless it turns into a big debate.

Isn't it CRAZY how passionate people get on FB about things? My cousin is very opinionated and ended up getting so many people angry around the time of the presidential election. I feel like he has to hide behind the computer to speak his mind but won't in person. That to me is very childish. I would agree with the other posters to just let it go and hopefully it will blow over. FB is great for some reasons, but other days I would like to unfriend everyone on there ha ha

Celena, I thought your response was very well thought out and mature. I don't think you need to feel an obligation to do anything more.
