Heartbreaking that they are targeting this young artist because he is black. Thought Korea would be better than that.

Good. Streamers are a pox on civilized society.

Generally, yes. But people like this a-hole who stream themselves being a disruptive a-hole to society are the worst of the worst. Hopefully he'll learn a lesson and tone it down once he gets out.*



























* Spoiler alert: he won't. And will likely make even more money from this new attention once all of this is said and done.

I don’t think any streamer or professional troll should face jail time


he was breaking laws while streaming. the streaming part is the least of it for his sentencing. if he didnt have a camera and streamed and was caught doing this shite he would still go to jail.

just because you film yourself for likes doesnt make you immune to laws.

meanwhile, back home is the U.S.

you can have a rap sheet a mile long, slit a girls throat on public transport, walk off and mutter “fricking white girl”, and see no real jail time.


That guy was charged with first degree murder and is currently in jail.

Why make something up just to slur your own country? Just say you hate America.

He told people that Korea was a vassal state of the US and they couldn't jail a US citizen. How's that going for him.

Will probably be deemed incompetent.

Waiting on the judge’s ruling in NC and is currently undergoing eval for the federal court system.

They have rigorous rules in their prisons.

He will also have a physical job while in and it looks like they have to work a minimum of 8 hrs a day.

And he doesn’t speak the language.

He isn’t going to have fun.

Also his..."independent" spirit will be intentionally broken. He's continued trolling SK as this trial has gone on. He's seen as a pariah in SK society. He's been assaulted by members of their special forces. He's fricked. Like really, truly, fricked. He's either going to come out of this as a broken person or a serial killer.

That's an ongoing situation and he'll remain imprisoned until he's declared competent, at which point they'll proceed with the prosecution.

I get that went to South Korea to do that and he didn’t go full retard and choose North Korea but even then, Asian countries don’t play.

In Singapore and Malaysia you get caned and it usually results in you never being able to walk properly again.
