Y'all are the ones making the issue about this, sorry that barry isn't doing what you think he should do. I know it is VERY un PC of him. I am sure someone can find the number to that PC police that people are always talking about to force him to do what you want.
I'm basing my opinion on how I see his specific action and sending someone in his stead--unclassy and undignified, if you ask me.
