Jail for throwing a shoe!!

Ok, ok , ok. I'm sure we all remember that a man threw his shoes at our former President, George W. Bush. This man was sentenced to serve 3 YEARS in jail for throwing shoes at a countries head of state. Yea, it's not right to throw your shoes at someone, especially if they're the President of a country, but 3 YEARS?!?! It is understandable that the man learns his lesson and manners, but George W. Bush wasn't the best of human beings or leaders. He gave off a vibe that he didn't care too much about what was going on. Well, back to the "shoe thrower." This man claims that he was tortured while he was in custody. It doesn't sound impossible that this happened to him, seeing how all the violence continues in our country/world, even though some of us strive for world peace. 3 years seems like too much, but not much can be done once the "government of the people, for the people, by the people" has made up its mind.
