When is trawling through the deepest recesses of the internet to resurface claims about events 17 years ago that have already been answered "holding to account"?

When is assault - throwing a punch to make someone be afraid - anything other than assault, and not just the "rough and tumble" of student politics? How can a person whose approach to politics was "robust" using intimidation and hateful language (mostly directed at gays) come out and attack people who use similar tactics for their own cause?
