Well, I forgive any transgressions he might have inadvertently made....not that
everyone (or even a few) consider(s) what he did offensive.  Regardless of
someone else's interpretation of the issues, there's no need for anyone to be
rude, hostile, or petulant toward him.  He's a great guy and as far as I'm
concerned...welcome here anytime.
