Fuck you and anyone who upvoted your piece of shit comment. "I know, let's rape the guy to teach him a lesson. That'll surely work, right? Let's make sure he turns into a hardened criminal or gets murdered because he did something I don't like!" That's not how a civilized society works. You are welcome to bring that brand of justice to the middle east or some other shit hole area of the world.
