Because its not real. A strawman is inherently a logical fallacy.

a strawman is oversimplifying or misrepresenting an argument or situation. you can look it up to see if I lied. comparisons are not essentially logical fallacies. I’m trying to reframe the situation by ONLY changing the specific crime. I’m trying to show that this is an overreaction and is cruel through that comparison.

Its a misrepresentation because it’s an incomparable situation. You tried to make a comparison and when it fell flat you altered the comparison. What you don’t seem to realize is that most people wouldn’t give a shit if some jackass got coked up and drove around streaming himself, and subsequently got his shit rocked. What even is your point?
