I could have waited until the current furore about your situation had died down, but then, there's always another situation that people will find links to with a post like this.
But you didn't, Danny. You posted it now, and this is what it's about.
You've told a self acknowledged sex offender that he's the victim of a mob, and the victim of the crime that she shouldn't have looked here because she'll just get upset again (even though she shouldn't, because he'll be sorry someday).
You've told the members of a community that got up and said "this is wrong, and the man that did it isn't welcome in our space any more" that they shouldn't have done it.
I think you're wrong. I think you need to read these again in front of a mirror, and look at yourself for while afterwards.
And I think your timing is appalling, and insensitive, and stupid.
I said in the comments to my original post that I didn't think we'd done a good thing, only - as flawed as it was - a necessary one.
But your post here has taken everything good that could have come of this and crapped on it.

If not this, then what?
