Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 2995249, member: 1992"] I'm all for punishment that fits the crime but I'm deadset against giving different punishments for the same crime(misdemeanors etc). Everyone treated exactly the same and I don't give a single care about role model status, bringing a game or institution into disrepute UNLESS the organization is 'the law'. By that I mean police, barristers, judges, politicians( law givers) etc who should be held to a higher standard. Everyone else, treated without bias. If your child looks up to some sportsmen/women and that person fails and stumbles your child has to deal with that, has to learn or understand that their hero is human. That's reality and a good thing. If your child thinks that they should emulate that poor behaviour then that's an education failure and the role model is not responsible. My view about role models is not the popular view and I know it's not shared by most. I think their significance is over rated and most grown ups don't have them or at least see the ones they have as human and full of the same failings and weaknesses we commonly see in society. Rant over ha ha. [/QUOTE]
