Everyone will be given the same privilege... this is called a precedent in the judicial system. Precedents are called upon whenever there is a trial. Establishing a previous judgment as a point to base a defence is as old as the annals of the justice department. My husband is 20 years experience in the Federal Judicial System and he says this will be a precedent and all 'past and future' perpetrators of any 'infringements of policy' can use this precendent to get out of any 'suspension'..

In a way that's good, because as many of us were 'given suspension warnings ' in the past for daring to retort on attacks, I would take reintstatement as a sign that everything and anything goes. Freedom is a good thing, censorship is a bad thing. We should all be allowed to post anything as long as we wave the precendent for reinstatement in front on the SI admin. Don't be so hard on this case, its unlocked a pandora's box but I'm sure Pandora herself had a blast when she opened her box.
