    Hahaha wow! That’s your comment about this? Incredible!!!

    Sure, if someone writes something on the internet that some business owner somewhere doesn’t like, lets just torture them. Makes total sense!

    In case you are actually this dumb: Her comment was a so called hyperbole. People like using these, often for humor reasons, especially on the internet and sometimes they are used to clarify something that’s actually subtle. Nobody reading that comment actually thinks that she seriously means people would get killed by that stuff. And if they would, she should still be allowed to express what she thinks on the internet.

      A person in a position of power is held to different standards, and the article the post was about had nothing to do either torture, of course that’s a terrible thing, but I was sticking to the facts of the article…
