My support for his expulsion isn't politically motivated. I feel very strongly that Deus engaged in treasonous activity and that kind of activity needs to have consequences.
I'm not even concerned with political motivation. My feelings on that sort of activity would apply to anyone holding office in the left, right or center.
I get that, and sympathise with you.
If I thought deus had done a snowstalker then I would be first in line to expel him, but I think in his thread he was very careful not to do anything that can be called treason. Which I think is the crux of the matter- we both agree that treason should be punished, we just don't agree on the facts of this case.
