and i do not care. prosecute what they did to 4chan also.

all that. the motive, intent, who... matters not. the threat was out there. whomever gets charged.

for me, it was NEVER 4chan. a site of bottom feeders. do not give a fuck. for me, the argument was

using the net to threaten women by humiliation, degradation, shame to shut them up.

that was my ONLY issue.
