Naturally, like most of us, I've been thinking about these things for a while. If I may point to something I wrote a couple years ago: users.www.livejournal.com/xiphias/669370

That's about the Readercon lifetime ban of Rene Walling, one of the events that started the wider conversation about anti-harassment policies, and, incidentally, is among the reasons I think zero-tollerance is a bad idea, and that the purpose of these policies ought to be to INCREASE the number of possible responses, not decrease them.

Which, again, is why I don't like having the police be the only option.
