"Get them the f**k out" - Asmongold believes Johnny Somali should be deported instead of being put behind bars
(Timestamp: 01:18)
Johnny Somali has already sparked various critical reactions from the online community, and Asmongold is the latest to provide his insights on the matter. According to the streamer:
"I think that's (deportation) what they should do. As much as I would like to see him sit in jail, I would wanna see that from a punishment perspective, because I think it would be funny. But this is wasting the Japanese people's money. Just get him the f**k out of the country."
While the OTK member mentioned that imprisoning a foreigner isn't always the ideal solution, he believes that in Johnny Somali's case, there is reason to suspect that he had gone to Japan with the intent of causing harm. He said:
"With this guy, it is a lot worse because he went to the country with the intention of causing trouble. With the intention of trying to harass the civilians and trying to harass the population."
What did the fans say?
Asmongold shared his perspective on his YouTube channel, which has over 2.18 million subscribers and generated several noteworthy comments. Here are some of the top ones:
For those unaware, Johnny Somali was officially charged on November 2, 2023.
