Well I can see how that makes s...WHAT THE FUCK?

But supporters of short people say it's about time someone recognizes the unique challenges they face.

Besides the whatthefuckness, doesn't this go against idea of trying to treat short people equal? "Oh, the poor little feller wouldn't make it in prison..." Also, if people can't be sent to prison because it's dangerous to them, then I'd say something should be done to prisons.

Wow. I know I'm tempting Momus fate but I really, really hope someone beats the ever living tar out of Kristine Cecava.

don't do the crime if you can't do the time... on the other hand, there's no question this guy would be dead meat in prison right quick. pedos are the bottom of the prison totem pole.

Short people should be exiled to some Lost-type island anyway.

"Must be this tall to be murdered in prison"

I'm speechless. (And short! Time to go commit some crimes, I guess.)

We are totally willing to go if Naveen Andrews is there. Also that Hurley character seems nice.

(Not speechless for long, I guess...)

Yeah, if we begin to accept that prison is completely different in its punishment levels for different people -- e.g., for this guy it it could turn out to be a death sentence -- that seems like a much stronger call for prison reform than for variations in sentencing.

Yay short people advocacy!
"I'm assuming a short inmate would have a much more difficult time than a large inmate," said Mangano, who is 5 feet 4 inches tall. "It's good to see somebody looking out for someone who ~~is a short person~~ MOLESTS INNOCENT GIRLS."

'tho I admit, I'd have a lot more respect for this Mangano character if he actually said "It's good to see somebody looking out for the little guy."
