I wonder what cousin Nathan thinks of this.

EDIT: Response from Nathan:

what a loser

Great member of Idiocracy. These are the kind of kids who do these actions either out of boredom or because they got bullied. And in his case, its probably both.

Just send him to Polar Owl.

Seems light for putting people’s lives at risk.

Here's the idiot. And no doubt 4 years is light.

After reading this thread, two things occurred to me:

1). Thank God he was caught and prosecuted.
2). Some of you need mental health counseling as much as the perpetrator does. Wanting someone to spend life in prison is one thing, but then hoping that person is raped?

Fucking weirdos.

I see it as more of an opposite reaction to the shit he pulled. Because he's weak in real life he has to swat people possibly getting them killed so his reward for acting Demickey is going to butt pounding prison where he WILL have no power to defend himself as his only way to defend himself or injure other people are nowhere near the viciousness of the raw power of the streets. I wonder how much of this is hyperbole or gallows humor.

Idealistically prison is a place where people pay their debt to society, get rehabilitated, and learn from what they did.

4 years... for 375 murder attempts?

Should've been life in prison.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

It’s amazing how crooks always look like the biggest degenerates and hermits ever.

For every good looking crook like Luigi, there’s probably 1,000 creepy weirdos.

And people say stereotyping isn’t true. Lol

Dude was a one hit wonder, you are never gonna find a better actor for that role.

But 3 times the weight, more like joseph cordon-bleu.

 

[Chuck Berry]

what a loser

 

[Hookshot]

If he did it hundreds of times why wasn't he ever charged with wasting police time? or are things like filling false reports not crimes in America?

 

[RJMacready73]

Seems incredibly light for the severity of the crime, wasting police resources and potentially putting innocent lives at risk especially considering how shooty bang bang the US police is... 4yrs!? Plus he looks like a fucking dork so hopefully what he lacks in actual prison time gets made up in sexy time

 

[chakadave]

It’s sad the American police are so broken and guns a blazing that swatting even works.

This. It shouldn't even be an available tactic to call and the police simply show up in full kit.

Yeah, how the fuck is that not a huge waste of tax money??
