Dear Furs,
Unless you have the power to remove someone from "furry", then your dramagasming over this is a waste of your time.
The average life expectancy for someone in the US is around 73 years. That's 26645 days.
By midnight tonight, you will have spent 1 full day on this. I imagine this wargarrbl will go on for 2 weeks. That means you will spend 14 days on this.
1/20th of a percent of your life will have been spent worrying about something you have no control over, something that likely wouldn't pertain to or affect you, and something that you cannot stop.
Accept responsibility for everything that happens in your life. Recognize what you can change. Show who you are by your actions. If you live by those words, you'll realize that this is unimportant.
It saddens me to see good people getting wrapped around the axle of something that they don't have any control over. There's nothing any of you can do about this.
So what, they're off FA? They'll be back. They're still furs. They'll show up at conventions. They'll consume art.
How does it change what you do? What have you done lately for furry?
