> You're kidding, right? If we can't say we find something offensive, we are effectively silenced. Jade did NOT say she found the person who posted offensive, but a statement. To me that is perfectly legitimate & needs no apology.

One can say that one feels offended, but not that something is offensive. The former is a statement of a subjective feeling; the latter is a statement of judgment about someone or someone's behavior.
