The respectful and supportive comments are out numbering the hateful and disrespectful comments on my #Inclusivity in #hamradio post on @kb6nu blog.
Arguing for justice and equity takes time. It is a long game, not a reactive "I'm threatened and yelling" process.

The very vocal and threatened/hateful minority will always be out there, but together was can move forward and do good things.
Thanks, everyone.
