DHC crossed the line from writing a provocative piece to writing a troll column. The tastiest type of column for other trolls. But mixed in to that the column also enraged a lot of average joes throughout social media. That needs to be acknowledged.

I do not know DHC or CD, but I will not hold back from criticising the writing as poorly timed, poorly focused and insensitive to the extreme.

If you would not say it on a soapbox in front of a real crowd think twice before writing it on Twitter or as a columnist, as the tomatoes and cabbages still get thrown.
