The man who protested about Leonard Slatkin’s mild political joke has sent the conductor a prompt apology:

Dear Mr. Slatkin,
Thank you so much for your personal response, especially in light of your busy schedule. After reading your email, I realize that I was too quick to react. There has just been so much negativity on Facebook, Twitter, news, etc that I was looking forward to an evening without politics. 
I am deeply moved by your willingness to write me personally. Please be assured that you have renewed my faith in the DSO and it’s wonderful conductor. 
I greatly look forward to your next concert.
