It was not a political platform for Tim Robbins or the president of the Hall of Fame.

If these celebrities (who really have no standing to have a louder voice than the rest of us) want to have a platform to shove their uninformed, incompetent opinions down the throats of an unsuspecting populace, it seems only fair that they should suffer the consequences of their own stupidity.

If they can't stand the heat they ought to stay out of the kitchen. These people are given an ultra-large platform to speak out about subjects on which they're largely ignorant. It doesn't seem unreasonable that people who are associating with them by choice may make different choices as a result of what these celebrities say.
