Banning of Baltija

This was a necessary ban. However, it was executed in the wrong way. There was a chance to set a democratic and constitution abiding precedent for how to ban a troublesome player, but this was missed. Instead, the ban made the entire government look hypocritical and neglectful of the reasons they said they set Taijitu up.

We can only hope that this is taken as a lesson on how not to do things.
