Thats a really tough bar to set on a whole plethora of moral and legal reasons.

Its really skewed in one direction, I think there likely needs to be some middle ground.

If you look at the current state of affairs players can commit an intermediate to severe felony without any risk of losing their jobs or suffering anything more than minor financial harm and minor inconvenience.

Shouldnt there be some fairness going the other way?
