Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2621159, member: 2221"] [b]re: [Confirmed] Russell Packer --> Panthers[/b] What about his victim, do you think he will have forgotten, or doesn't that matter? Why should he be subject to his attacker's face on TV, possibly basking in glory, or doesn't that matter? I believe in rehabilitation and I agree with your first paragraph, but to me, it is imperative that is not at the cost of more suffering from any victim, including psychological, which would certainly come from the above I believe that with the privilege of being a professional sportsman, especially in a sport with high media coverage, comes a duty of image and character, and I believe that committing a crime of this nature definitely forfeits the right of its author to continue to enjoy such privilege and exposure. This doesn't mean I want Packer to stay locked-up, or doesn't deserve a second chance, but rehabilitation can and should involve a new humble start, as well as a hard journey to earn the above mentioned rights again. Give the victim a sense of closure before arguing the aggressor's right. [/QUOTE]
