Well, what he was doing was certainly wrong, but now where is the equality?

Nobody is going to get arrested for making fun of me, so why should someone get arrested for making fun of someone who's disabled? Are we not equals?


Double standard FTW?

"feet first into hell"

Don't like me? Well take seat next other -blam!-es waiting for me to give a -blam!-.

"Men of Rohan! Of Gondor! My brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come, when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends, and break all bonds of fellowship. An hour of wolves, and shattered shields, when the Age of men comes crashing down. But it is not this day, this day, we fight!"

Ticket to hell incoming!

You can be jailed for that?

What a terrible justice system.

The charge(s) were disorderly conduct and aggravated menacing, to which he plead guilty (knowing and understanding the likely sentence).

I would say that he was given a completely fair shake by the justice system.

Not without some serious effort and thought.

I think it's hilarious that you can be charged with anything for hurting someones feelings.

Wow...that's insensitive at best...
10 months seems about right, but I think he should also speak to the poor girl. See things from her perspective.

No. If he could this wouldn't have happened. This girl doesn't need him coming in and throwing some court appointed bull-blam!- lie of an apology at her.

Hey, give hitler some credit. He did kill hitler. And that was a pretty cool move.

Dude, they followed her. They didn't say something and walk away, they followed her. On multiple instances.

So he so was so big an -blam!- he got jail-time for it.

Go figure.

  • 11.28.2012 4:24 PM PDT

This is horrendous, and a perfect example of America's flawed judicial system. This man committed no crime. Essentially, they jailed an innocent man.

-I was here

uh, he shouldn't have been jailed. yeah, its a dick move, but last I checked making fun of someone isn't illegal.

Aggravated menacing. That is a crime, and he pleaded guilty to it.

"Aggravated menacing"? Give me a break. He made fun of someone. Happens every day in America.

If making fun of someone was a crime, every schoolchild would be in jail.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

That is a situation where I would go crazy and beat them both senseless.

Unfortunately, I'd probably be arrested.

"What are we holding on to, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for."

Let's not confuse the issuess of being a total jerk (which he is, on all counts) and being a lawbreaker. This one incident (walking in an imitation of her) is definitely being cruel and stupid, but isn't a very "direct" act towards her. It's probably considered free speech, even. Do I think it's right? ABSOLUTELY NOT. But should he be jailed for it? Not too sure.

And yet we do punish schoolchildren for bullying and insulting their peers. Granted, we don't jail them. But shouldn't an adult be held to a higher standard?

Don't get me wrong, I think jail is a tad bit to harsh in retrospect, but he did do something inherently wrong. I'd have punched the man in the mouth if I was there more likely than not.

Harassment charges? The video said they bullied her to the point of not wanting to go to school.


Same thing happened to me in highschool. By multiple students in school, in my village, online (myspace at the time) and on xbox live.


Nobody wanted to do anything about it, and I was forced to transfer schools.


Sure, The guy pleaded guilty, and yeah, he was being a total mongoloid, but c'mon. This is the real world, and people WILL make fun of you no matter what.
