The backlash is understandable but a bit excessive. The entire point of Neeson telling the story was that he realized how wrong his thinking was and was appalled by his own behavior.
We need to stop burning people for thousands of years for making a mistake that lasted one moment, so to speak. People should be allowed to redeem themselves, but the folks who subscribe to this outrage culture don't seem to think anyone should ever be able to be forgiven once they've done something wrong and that's ridiculous in my opinion.
So yea, I understand the backlash but it's completely over the top.

If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
