As a former business owner, I know it's hard to change policy and still please everyone. You can't do it.
A-fucking-men. Which is why LJ's evasion and silences and backpedaling over this whole business is, to me, more frustrating and contemptible than the actions in the first place. You cannot make an unpopular decision popular by fudging, equivocating, maintaining comm silence, making empty promises, or lying. It will still be unpopular, and now everyone will hate you for being a wishy-washy double-talker. God! Just have the balls to say what you need to say, and be done with it.
