Fortunately I haven’t the faintest idea what happens to first time offenders, except that they are in trouble. If you think that Rush should avoid consequences for his crime because you like him and the RATS hate him, that’s fine. I think he can do way more if he takes a line from his friend the Reeeevvvverend Jaaackson and walk the walk.

Rush would shut them down if he acted in a way that showed he meant everything he said, took responsibility for himself and his own actions. Why is that thought lost in all the excuses for Rush here escapes me, Rush is a good man, we need to help him. It will be way easier for him to deny what he has done, but it will cost him his self-respect. What we can do is let him come clean; prove that he is what he says. No excuses.

Where did I say that? Rush should get treated like anyone else in the same circumstances, which would not be jail time.
