I thank you for your efforts to try to tone down anything that others found offensive. I do know know everything so I will withhold any judgements. I am just now going through the messages, but I of course support your right to have an opinion. Even if I don't agree with it (which I don't know since I haven't gotten that far).
If there was any damage done to your reputation, then I will work to fix it myself.
Please refrain from making more statements if you can so that we can let this situation pass. Again, thank you for attempting to take down the tension by amending your comments.
