Whatever happened to "no penalty without a law"(nulla poena sine lege)? How did we go from "what should our policy on this be" to "let's do a public spectacle, come up with some rules and apply them retroactively"? LW, I am disappointed.

Is there an explicit law against publicly and retroactively applying rules to someone? No? Shut up.
