Sorry, Chris, I'm not pro or anti-treehouse. I'm just amused by the rhetoric and foaming at the mouth from all sides.
What I actually tweeted was, "Evidently, Pittsburgh is aflame over city councilman Doug Shields's hatred of dead children." (Link to tweet: http://twitter.com/JustinKownacki/status/14783657794)
Why is sarcasm so easily interpreted as outrage these days? However, since everyone presumes their interpretation of the situation -- and the commentary surrounding it, including unresearched tweets like mine -- is "right," our ability to discuss the issue like adults seems ever less likely.
