Listen, it's not up to me to forgive this guy. I'm just saying that I don't want to be associated with an organization who welcomes him into their "family".
That's fair enough. You're entitled to your opinion as much as I am mine. I just want to make sure it is clear that I'm not saying I'm ok with his action. However I am ok with him being allowed to move on, whether it be here or somewhere else. I just so happen to want it to be here.
