So... guess you probably shouldn't be calling people out on something you don't understand.

I literally said "treating him like a delinquent", not, "he's a delinquent". That clearly where I drew the similarity.
I know what you said. I also know what an analogy is. Please refrain from the use of condescension.

No one was treating him like a delinquent, since delinquents are punished by fine or incarceration and given a record, not just criticized. It's not a good analogy.
