The world is a dangerous place. An SIM undergraduate got into trouble for spouting racist jokes. He was drunk. His 'friends' from NUS egged him on while filming him in his nonsensical self, and then uploaded the video on youtube. The SIM undergrad got instant infamy, and will face disciplinary action from his university.
It is not my business to perpetuate this fiasco, and I hope that people will forget him and what he did. But I hope that my children will learn from this incident. It is easy for the young to be caught in a high of emotions, and then, in their need for instant gratification, do something wrong and find themselves in a bad situation.
Regardless of where you are and who you are with, always maintain a clear mind. Even when partying or celebrating. Even when you think you are with good friends. And please, treat those around you with respect.
