Didn't know where else to post this, but it's pretty emblematic of how deeply corrupt our society is. Let me know if you think there's a better community to post this in.

Yes, but I'd rather see him dunk on the Yu-Gi-Oh scene and other fandoms than actively risk his life. He could still do that stuff in America.

Jordan Shanks should be a national treasure and I say this as a non-Aussie. If any of the enemies he's made were to actually take his life...
