Don't ask if don't want true answer

To those who want an apology from Carrie Prejean for her opinion on gay marriage I say give it a rest.

First of all she was asked her opinion which she is entitled to like it or not and she expressed it with respect to those who may disagree.

Second, she was asked this question, some could say a loaded question by a gay man who the next day expressed his outrage by calling her a profane name. Mr. Hilton if you are not prepared for an answer you don't want then don't ask.

Frankly I don't agree with Miss Prejean BUT she is certainly entitled to be respected for giving an honest answer in a nonjudgmental way and Mr. Hilton should never again be allowed to be a judge in a beauty contest given his contemptuous attitude.

He is seeking acceptance for his views but profanes those whose views differ from his own which makes him exactly like those he opposes.
