Okay, people need to calm the hell down and get off my back. I'm not the dude that raped the kid, so don't take your disgust with this article out on me. All I'm saying is that I'm sick of little kids mouthing off because they know the adults can't do anything to them. Afterall, hitting them will only get you a prison sentence. And yes, it's probably the parents' fault for not raising their kids proper.
But the simple fact is that if the kid hadn't been making fun of the guy, that never would've happened. He could have avoided it.
Which is you essentially blaming the kid for his rape, which is why everyone is so disgusted.
People shouldn't behave to avoid rape, for fuck's sake. People shouldn't only behave well because otherwise they'll get punished. That is a ridiculous and childish view that admits, as another poster mentioned, that they simply can't control kids.
I mean, let's try and imagine what this kid could possibly have said to warrant an attack of any kind. I honestly can't think of anything. I don't think anything a kid said to me would move me to violence, and I have Xbox Live! Being teased by a kid is like being taunted by a monkey, I can go out, party, drink, get laid...the kid has to do homework and go to bed early. Why would I care what they think?
I know you're not the rapist, as does everyone else, but it doesn't change the fact that you said something stupid. People are naturally going to call you out on that.
