People are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, but this guy already found them guilty of rape. Your calling them rapist, but what if they never raped anyone? Because you really have no evidence of any such thing calling them rapist would be slander.

What's next? Trying to get terrorist that are not really terrorist arrested? Your lucky you only got shoved.
