Another opinion: Adia lives (still) in our (winter) neighborhood in Tucson and she’s a really nice lady. She told me Tara has been her greatest influence and has mentored her all along the way.

There have been many things Barnes has done or said that I didn’t like. She seems to be a speak-first-think-later person. That will rub many people the wrong way. 

Perhaps this has led her to be good at apologizing.

I may be on an island on this. But I have more respect for someone who at least sticks to their guns – even if the comment is “controversial“.   She “didn’t mean what she said.”   Bunk.  I suspect she meant exactly what she said.  What I suspect she didn’t mean is what she said in her so-called apology. She’s not alone in this. Happens all the time
