Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn was the latest person to be fired for offensive tweets. In this case, some the tweets were from a decade ago (the statute of limitations for offensive tweets seems to be longer than it is for some capital crimes). In The Hollywood Reporter, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shares his take on Hollywood’s zero tolerance policy: “We need to have a rubric to judge social infractions. What exactly was said or done? In what context? What was the intention? Who was offended or hurt? How badly? How long ago did it happen? Is this a first offense? I, too, want to eliminate offensive speech and actions as quickly as possible. I still believe justice delayed is justice denied. But we need to judge the totality of the person, not just a stray utterance. How many of us would survive under that strict litmus test?”
