I'm inclined to agree, but in the other hand - I'm glad someone who is not a perpetual victim is actually speaking out. With some common sense and strength of character, I imagine TB will resume his usual schedule and focus less on these aspects of his life and career.  I think it's one of those things where the behaviour has always been around, just when it happens to people who can't handle it - they cry and scream for protection like children do. They trap themselves in the recurring pattern and demand the world change in spite of reality, which in some cases unfortunately attracts more of the abusive behaviour. It's appalling behaviour, no one should have to deal with it, but that's the way the world is. It's the dark side to freedom. Celebrities have hated aspects of fame for a long time, the paparazzi and those like them have made life hell for some. The smart ones take it in stride and ensure they take retreats from it all in an ongoing basis so as to reforge their own sanity.  I think it's important to have time to talk about and make it socially unacceptable behaviour in so far as the majority of people do not condone such behaviour. The ones who forever shriek about it and can't seem to move on to actually producing any valuable contribution to society however, should perhaps focus on their own life, and build a stronger character with which they can participate in the world. TB has endured a great deal over recent times, hopefully by stepping back to his usual routine and back to contributing to society, consciously ignoring the dirty aspects of the community, he sets an example. A very adult, and mature example. You hit the nail on the head with suggesting he resume a posture of stoicism, a traditionally fatherly trait. An example which has been sorely missing in a world of perpetual victims. If I were to make an attempt to be poetic and perhaps a little bold, I'd suggest perhaps it is what many needed most from the beginning - a strong fatherly figure to wipe away their tears, pat them on the head, to say "It will be okay", and give them a sense of security to the world.
