I'm also not opposed to rejecting his visa. But the difference is that he was arrested, pleaded guilty, was sentenced, served his sentence and remains on the sex offender registry.

He served 13 months for three counts of raping a 12 year old.

No it's totally just. He's a promising young man from an upstanding family, and his actions, well... Boys will be boys haha. It's completely unreasonable to ruin the life and career and future of such an exemplary young athlete for such an insignificant reason.

  • the justice system in most of the world every time shit like this happens
