How can you be sure that didn’t happen?
You’re right. I hadn’t thought that the discussion may have happened a while ago and they’re just publicly making it clear how that existing policy relates to this case. I thoughtlessly assumed it was a heat-of-the-moment response to this case, which was dumb of me.
And maybe I’m being dumb again, but I’m not sure what part of my closing sentence your gif is objecting to (if that’s intended to convey objection). I’m just suggesting that if it’s possible, they should lifetime ban anyone who has been convicted of rape if they haven’t already, otherwise they’re open to accusations of implementing the same type of differential punishment that everyone (myself included) is horrified by in this case. I certainly didn’t mean to suggest they shouldn’t be lifetime banning rapists.
