What bothered me about Wong Foo was that 1) the nasty sheriff is played for laughs at the end and his being humiliated by the assembled townspeople seems to be enough punishment. For being a bigoted jerk, maybe, but he tried to rape one character whom he'd stopped for a minor traffic violation, and his manner made it obvious that this wasn't the first time. And 2) it seems to be enough that a wife-beater gets beaten up. It's not enough in either case.
