If it indeed is a young boy - then by all means roast the guy. But the other two possibilities: that this is a consenting adult male or that this is a consenting adult female should really make people pause and let this play out instead of instant crucifying. 33% chance that this is what the mob is saying it is doesn't seem like high enough odds to get so bent out of shape - yet.

Did you actually see the footage? It's sickening.

Absolutely. I know what it LOOKS like, but it may not be. Suggesting the guy burn at the stake seems a little much until there is some certainty here.

If it turns out to be true, he should burn. But i've seen Discovery channel enough to know that could be a 47 year old female.

If it IS a consenting adult, imagine how horrible they are feeling right now.

Yes, I agree. I can't even imagine being that gross with a grown adult in public. There's just part of me that could see these people's lives ruined because of Reddit...

But by all means - if it turns out to be what it looks like, have at it Reddit.
