Comments certainly are raining on that gutsy bloke from Muar, if you have heard and read about the big hoo-ha in various media. I've seen some pretty harsh ones, hilarious ones and downright thick-headed ones.
I'm pretty glad certain quarters have backed him up, albeit in a subtle way, proving not all Malaysians are soggy-brained enough to believe that he can incite a major race clash ala Lord of The Rings war through the video. Duh..

One comment that got me laughing was a contribution by an honest annonymous writer:
"All that guy is guilty of is saying in public what every Chinese household says in private."
Ahhh... toucy, touchy, sensitive, sensitive.. but it is always good to laugh at our ownselves kan? :) A certain bumiputra contributor caught me by surprise by not joining his counterparts in condemning the bloke in his 'distasteful' creation, but instead called out to the government to abolish the bumiputra rights to prove their mettle. Wow, I'm impressed.
Some comments were certainly running high in emotions, making them sound like 5-year-old kiddies saying I duwanna fren u coz u took my crayon and im gonna tell my mommy sorta thingy. Erm, even if you felt insulted, you do not curse people's family to get hauled by the ISA and curse the person to be exiled and threaten to kill the person when he returns.. It somewhat belittles your mental maturity.. or rather, reflects it.

yeah there's over 98+ comments on that video... more than the an article we had on gay issues.
im curious - do you think thecicak should remove childish comments? r should it be left on the site?
i suppose if thecicak removes it, people would start questioning about thecicak's stand on free expresssion. *chuckles*
As tiresome as it is to read about all those sometimes, they are a gauge of the intensity of the responses generated.. and at times also a source of entertainment. =p
