naw not really....but I'm ok with that too...lol

Actually, I have seen many dozens of times people getting themselves back into the activity even after horrific things and welcomed back with open arms,....quietly at first of course.

Not saying it will happen in this case  strange things HAVE happened in the past

 Well, the good news here is this " business as usual " stuff is about to come to a screeching halt. No way will be people that have done ( your words )' horrific things but later  welcomed back with open arms " about to take place any time soon in DCI after this nationally embarrassing scandal.  Not when there are lots and lots of terrifically talented, decent, young people out there looking for positions in Drum Corps. The ones who have done " horrific things " in the past can say " good bye " forever in ever attempting to return later. As for George Hopkins  returning to Drum Corps. Good luck to that Corps or organization that tries to get that past DCI.... Not gonna happen. Forget it. Things change. Welcome to the Brave, New DCI World of Post George Hopkins.

 Yes, I will be " sure of that", if you don't mind.

 Don't " be so sure " that somehow this will blow over in time and that people that done " horrific things will be welcomed back with open arms "  in the future to DCI and that then it'll be business as usual with a return to the Good Ol Boys Network in DCI. Those days came to a screeching halt in Feb, 2018, imo.. 

 This was a wake up call to DCI HQ. Alarm bells did not go off in Indy HQ. A sledgehammer was taken to Indy's DCI Front Door, by the National Media. And when the Hopkins scandal hit their HQ in Indy, don't be" too sure " that DCI is about to " welcome people back who have " horrific things" back into DCI down the road at some point. You're kidding yourself  if you think that DCI HQ is not serious about this moving forward...or that they intend to be mere bystanders any longer at DCI HQ.  Put those bad dreams of yours away.

One good thing did come out of this whole ordeal...we don't have to worry about the Woodwind Takeover now.
