so anyway that fragranceprince boy has been arrested by the superefficient singapore police force (the pride of the land .. c'mon sing with me!). i don't think he'll do prison-time. probably get slapped with the maximum fine and do some CWO and get a police record.

still, i feel a little bad for him for being so stupid. i mean from reading his other posts he kind of deserves to be arrested just for being a first class dick. and if he bothered to pick up a newspaper anytime in the last 3 years he would've read about those other guys who got arrested for anti-islamic rants. but if you go onto the streets of singapore and pick anybody at random, chances are they will have more than a few disparaging things to say about the other races they are meant to be co-existing harmoniously with. so actually arresting him doesn't really address the issue of racism, it just serves as a warning to everyone else to keep their thoughts to themselves please, or else.

of course everybody discriminates on some level, present company included. show me a person who claims to be completely accepting and i'll show you a person who's completely delusional. or maybe you've literally found jesus. but at the very least there should be some kind of sensitivity in keeping your mouth shut for the sake of keeping the peace and the greater good.
