I applaud the statements that the LGM CoC should be phrased in a positive way.
But this is not about staying within comfort zones, its about protecting people. If anyone were comfortable with this subject matter then they would be very odd indeed. Many people in Alabama can't talk about race properly because it makes them uncomfortable. They can only discuss it in the abstract, and circle around it without coming to any accountability. These conversations are very familiar to me. On the surface it sounds reasonable, but what it means is that should an issue occur then the community feels entitled to complain about the issue because it makes them uncomfortable, not because something bad has happened. So please consider the practical nature of the CoC, and embrace a small bit of 'uncomfortableness' because it may help someone in the future.
