Anyway, you're right about one thing: the guy is terribly consistent in his stupidity. Good job! :D Forgive my ignorance, but I’m just wondering who the hell are the people behind that YPAP blog…or if it really is propitiatory of the YPAP??

Think of something better as it does not reflect well of your personal opinions or your usage of bombastic words such as bigotry (which your paragraphs were littered with). I hope your inspirations does not align with your real job or career ... wake up kids and start growing up!!!

Wait, trained lawyers cannot express one-sided stands? "there are good people from there who do see this intolerance and try their darndest to fight it. " One would have thought that the issue with lawyers is that they are trained and thus expected to be logical in their approach to any particular question and to write well enough to express that logic. If the writing is bad, target the writing and lack of logic, and not the intolerant view. An intelligent, articulate person is exercising his right to be heard when he expresses his views, whether intolerant or not. If there is disagreement, then one can meet him on the point raised. On the other hand, if the writing is bad, whether the view is intolerant or not is a different matter altogether. I am not speaking specifically about the subject person as I have not read what he has written. “his points in the comment section smacks of bigotry and were frankly shocking. even more so because he is a trained lawyer who ought to be able to ‘understand’ perspectives. yet he chose to express firmly a one-sided, almost prejudiced stand.”

You know, sort of like what the PAP uses to justify their salary hikes.

Should such notions permeate the top then Singapore society could be taking one more step back in the quest to become a more gracious society (if there be such a quest in the first place) Han, Well it is sad if he should hail from NUS Law school, but that said there are good people from there who do see this intolerance and try their darndest to fight it. Ben, Interesting comment there. It reminds me of the comment the JC student made during the seminar, that he must study hard so that he can contribute to the economy. Personally i found it a bit off.

Han,
