Hi Gerald, the first few days after something horrible happening, are by far the worst. In time you will be able to distance yourself from what happened and move on.

I didn't read the story, but if it was hateful, you have the right to complain about us.

Medium is not a place to be vile and intolerant.

Tell yourself each and every day that you are a decent person. Make it your mantra. you just stood up for a group that is already marginalized. :)
