My use of the word "fair" was to be applied to ourselves, not to the media. It is not fair for us to decide that because someone else might do something, that we must do something pre-emptive.
Anybody might do anything. That doesn't mean we *must* take action on something that may occur. That is the slope to which I was referring. And that is the fairness or lack thereof that I see in this situation.
Is pedophilia the sole property against which we have this supposed (but so far completely undocumented) procedure? Numerous times this so-called policy has been requested only to be redirected to in some cases, statements that say the exact opposite. Funny isn't it? Memory is a tricky thing.
