in fact, ignorance of the law is NO defense.
look it up.
i don't think that rule is always fair, but i must admit that in this case, with a person as thorough, as conscientious, as involved, as precise as Larry, the rule applies.
that being said, I think the punishment is absurdly disproportionate to the offense, and the real question to be addressed here is the rigid system of escalating punishment.
larry should have been blocked for a day or two at the very most.
just my 6 cents.
