    I agree, but:

    Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 60 days in prison,

    If her sentence was 10 years I wonder if she’d still be taking the moral stand.

      Out of all the hairs to split here, I personally think this is one I’d let slide. Gotta take the little flashes of hope for the next two years, at least.

      I would recommend that instead of conditionally forgiving her (based on something we’ll never know), we should give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that yes she would.
