[They’ve been struggling since even before this.](http://www.indystar.com/story/money/2015/08/19/subway-trouble-before-jared-mess/32023501/)They’re doing the right thing by keeping distant and quiet except for the pro forma press releases, at least.

Goddamnit, Jared. All the weight he likely inspired others to lose, now we have to gain it back just to be ethically conscientious. Ice cream cake it is then.

You just can’t look up to anyone anymore.

Typical. First it was the 11-inch “footlongs”…

Subway is not publicly traded, but as mentioned above, sales were already in decline.

Why the FUCK would you say that after the OP has been torn a new one (as far as the rules allow) for that type of bullshit.

Rape is wrong, not just wrong unless it’s someone so horrible that you think they deserve it.

Yes, we all occasionally have thoughts like this, but most of us understand they are just our emotions getting carried away, and don’t actually think such a heinous comment is one to continue to hold, let alone share.

Hell, I was already considering pitting the OP for this. The only reason I don’t is that I swore off starting Pit threads because I’m so lousy at getting anyone to understand my side.

They’re just venting. It’s not worth getting into.

Were all of the 14 girls hookers? If so, that would mean that they will each pocket $100K out of this? I just see this money going straight to their booking agents.

Their parents, I should think.

I don’t know how long it’s been going on. Some of those girls could be 18 by now. And frankly I don’t think it’s enough because he could still walk away from this with cash in hand. Hopefully his wife takes him for anything he has left.

God, right? I try to not go around wishing rape on anyone, but having an absolute shit fit over a throwaway anonymous online comment is bizarre. If people actually start legislating for that sort of revenge punishment, then I’ll be right there with you to help shoot it down. But in the real world, folks are just frustrated that these kind of atrocities can happen and are vocally lashing out in the only way that feels like it’s equal. At least in “print.” It’s not authentic, it’s just blowing off steam. And constantly lecturing others about it is ridiculous because that has about as much impact as Fogel being raped in prison because some internet dude wished it so.

In the real world, prison rape is an actual problem that no one takes seriously and no one makes an effort to address.

And I have to think that at least part of the reason is that thousands of times a day someone in this country is making s prison rape joke or a casual comment out of frustration and most people think it’s okay to do so.

So whenever I see someone wishing for extrajudicial punishment like rape or murder, especially in prison, I will call it out.

Wishing rape or murder on someone in prison is the same as wishing rape or murder on anyone anywhere.
