Perspective - if someone photoshopped my face onto pancho villa I could choose to be undermined or be a good sport about it, regardless of how wrong the other party may have been.

I will say this, being outraged may vault her into the limelight and accelerate her name recognition, if not for a moment. Almost sounds like an incentive to choose to be a victim

Or maybe she had a legitimate reason to be offended. You don't get to chose that.
I think you missed my point where i would be offended and still handle it with grace.

Oh and to shortcircuit the strawman observation, I've been in many professional situations where my latino heritage is used in a malicious and insulting way which offends me but I CHOOSE a constructive non confrontational conflict resolution that includes dialogue
