Poll: How important is PGR BoD accountability?

According to the Patriot Guard Code of Conduct the process to remove a member has 8 steps. In the case of Ted Frosty Foster PGR state/regional leadership barely if at all attended to steps 1 and 2 (we have not seen substantiation of the alleged infractions). The BoD skipped to steps 7 and 8, blatantly ignoring due process called for in the Code of Conduct. They accuse Ted of Code of Conduct violations they have yet to substantiate. But they are guilty of worse.

1) State Captain makes the recommendation for removal to the Regional Captain, and passes along all documents/facts in the case.

2) The Regional Captain will assess the information and if they believe removal is warranted will submit the request, with documentation, to Board of Directors via the Vice President for Members.

3) The member’s account on www.patriotguard.org at this point is frozen and they lose the ability to post in the PGR Forums.

4) The Vice President of Members begins an investigation into the complaint, and contacts the individual if at all possible, to get their side of the story.

5) The Vice President of Members will also contact other members of the State Leadership Team and/or fellow members if needed, to properly conduct a full investigation into the matter.

6) When the investigation is complete, the Vice President of Members will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors.

7) A vote is taken upon the recommendation.

8) After the vote, the member is contacted and told the outcome of the vote (pro or con) and whatever action(s) was recommended by the Board of Directors.

The Patriot Guard Board of Directors failed to follow the protocol of the Code of Conduct in the case of Ted Frosty Foster's termination. If all PGR are held to the strict guidelines of the code what should the penalty be for the BoD's infraction?
Reverse the decision to terminate the member
Make a public apology to the member
Hold themselves accountable and take corrective action
Turn in their hats and step down from leadership
All of the above
