Do I recognize that Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and Timothy B. Schmit are talented men with a great deal to offer despite my loss of respect for them for engaging in this venture, which I am strongly against?
Yes.
Do I violently hate them, rejoicing when they are in pain?
No... and if your life experiences lead you to believe that it's commonplace for people to relish the pain and suffering of those who disappoint them, then you need to associate with different people.
Do I think anyone who supports the group calling themselves the Eagles, regardless of degree, is a bad person?
No. Several people I call my friends are going to shows.
Do I recognize that they have a right to their opinion?
Yes.
Do I react badly to getting labeled, judged, and harangued for my opinion?
Yes.
Am I willing to recognize that people get heated and let it go when things settle down?
Yes.
I'm ready for things to settle down.
