While I can’t say I’m unhappy about this at all, I kind of still wish it was a decision made after a thoughtful discussion about “which crimes will we as an organization decide are so egregious or troubling that even after someone has served their sentence and has been deemed safe to release into the community, we will not let them participate in our activities” rather than a snap response to a terrible sentencing decision. And that now they’ve made the decision that rape is a crime that should lead to a lifetime ban, they check their current membership rolls and make sure they’ve consistently applied it to everyone.
