As Leb says, I agree the story he gave is lame, and it's probably the lawyer speaking by proxy. But you have yet to demonstrate how society would be served by making public examples of them, especially given their public contrition, and the fact that in all likelihood no permanent harm was done.

And where's Arch in all this? Shouldn't he be accusing Mike Waters of a "bad ass M.F." image by now? Shouldn't we be hearing about how if Mike Waters were in a bishopric, we'd see a lot more excommunications?
