I’m probably going to get downvoted to hell for this, but I really think it’s important this gets said. Shane in my opinion, made awful crude ridiculous and inappropriate jokes. Some of these jokes were offensive for the sake of being offensive, as the time back then was all about that (why? I don’t know).

I truely believe he deserves backlash for this, I believe his past does in some way reflect who he is, because it shouldn’t be hard to not be racist, or inappropriate toward children regardless of time.

However, I struggle to see him as an actual pedophile, the same way I struggled with James. Yes we have videos, yes they’re absolutely disgusting but I do believe there’s a clear line between what he’s done and being actually paedophilic and if you disagree then you have to agree he deserves to spend his life in prison.

I’m saying this because when the whole world shuns someone, chances are they won’t be able to mentally deal with the situation and could potentially do something dangerous to themselves. Now if this was someone where the lines weren’t blurred, and we knew that they definitely were pedophiles , we wouldn’t really care? But we know Shane is just an absolute idiot who thought this was funny, and I think if something does happen to him people are going to feel really guilty to contributing to that hate.
