In fact I said what has happened to him was unacceptable (several times in this thread!). The problem here is yourself and a few others are looking at this in a very black and white way so applying the same good vs evil logic to my argument. What I actually said was that I think the teenager was in the wrong, but less so than those who jailed him. He definitely doesn't deserve this and I would never imply otherwise.
Sorry I wasn't trying to suggest that you were saying he deserved any punishment. I was just trying to say that I think that people, or at least I, act more similarly on Facebook and in real life than you were suggesting.
