My attention went to the racist remark that he made during his speech, which goes as follows:
“It is a norm for the Chinese to not wash
themselves after defecating and urinating. What about menstrual blood in
their undergarments? Or what if they hugged a dog, drank alcohol, ate
pork...It’s not that we are prejudiced against them.
But, the elements of alcohol, dog and pork is all related to them. So,
if they want to patronise a laundrette, then patronise a normal
laundrette,”
Stop right there, you piece of shit. The moment you say something like "It's not that we are prejudiced against them," it clearly means that you are prejudiced against them. It's like when people say, "With all due respect." They always mean, "Kiss my ass."
So stop saying, "We are not prejudiced" or "I have friends who are". It doesn't mean that when you say such things, you can then follow up by saying shitty things about the people that you are disparaging. If you don't like them or are prejudiced against them, then say so. At least you're an honest bigot. Still a fucking bigot but at least honest. I'll still hate your guts but it's not built on a foundation of lies.
As a side note, the preacher/officer released a statement saying that it's his right to raise his views regarding the situation and you know what, he's right. He gets to say whatever he wants. He has the freedom of speech to do so.
But do remember one thing. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of your speech. If you say something stupid, expect people to criticize you. If you say something racist, expect people to call you a bigot. Don't hide behind the freedom of speech excuse whenever you say something bigoted and racist. It just shows that you're a fucking coward who cannot take responsibility for their own actions and words.
