Stupid behavior has repercussions. There was a post on FR not too long ago about that dumb twit that posted a picture of her flipping the bird at Arlington Cemetery and got fired for it. They were saying that it's been a couple of years and the act is still haunting her, causing her to be turned down for jobs, how she's always afraid of people finding out and confronting her on it, so on and so forth. I did not have a single bit of sympathy for her and her plight. I have none for these boys. They should have know what they were doing wsa wrong. They did it anyway. They're paying a price for it. At the end of the day it is nobody's fault but their own.
I completely agree that they knew it was wrong and should have known better, however, I hate to see a 20 year old boy’s life ruined because of stupid alcohol fueled behavior. I have a 20 something son and would be horrified if it were him in the video, but would not want his life ruined over it. Young adult/kids can do very stupid things but singing a bad, racist song should not ruin them. Murdering someone or actually committing a crime and being convicted should do more to alter their lives.
