On a personal level I hope he enjoyed pured food for a good long time. While I'm more than happy to admit to many mind altering experiences I won't be posting any personal accounts in this thread.
I was just curious why rooting for a rapist to be the subject of vigilante justice would make some people uncomfortable in the context of a TV show? The point of it being on TV is that you know the person is guilty, there is no ambiguity there, so any concerns about possibly punishing the wrong person can be set aside.
