The "Brantford Boomer" became an election meme thanks to extremely online right wingers.

There's just one problem: @lukelebrun.ca found the real context, and it changes everything.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”
