Stay Safe Wbill !
I asked my grandfather (US Army Major, retired) that same question and he said that he tended to take the long term view. People like Sandy Duncan and the Dixie Chicks will be forgotten by next year (or in most cases next week), but their right to speak freely will still be alive and well in America.
I thought that it was an appropriate thought on the subject and was an excellent way to retain one's sanity.
