    @ sorry TonusOH made a mistake clicking the dislike button. You summarize the essence of why they should never allow the organization go free from being scrutinize about their handling of CSA in their midst.

    Their self righteousness will go ballistic if they won and are exempted. They know how to point fingers at others for being bad. When they are caught in the same badness they look for every means to fight being labelled bad.

    The above win, although being the right decision, has the potential to be that sort of bragging point. Are they going to shout it from the housetops, or be discrete about it? Making too much of it has the potential of bringing the blood policy into the spotlight. The opinion of some on here* is that they are trying to slowly let that policy fade to where it is a conscience issue and it never gets brought up officially again. I personally will not believe that until they disband the HLCs.

    On the NZ Royal Commission, let's hope it shines some light into some darkened corners, now that the WT has been found to be not exempt from scrutiny.
