Should the Hwa Chong student be suspended?
-
You sure?Originally posted by mystiv:my view..
for a start, i agree with many here that the action of the guy is wrong (not exactly right to use the word boy for a 17years old, eh?). hitting someone aint the way to go..
however..
are we taking whatever is printed at face value? like what empathy said earlier on, we cant really trust the press totally..they, like us, weren't there. all they have were at most eye-witness accounts, and both sides of the stories from the bus captain and the student..it is highly possible that the media could have exagerated, fabricated, or misinterpreted the incident in certain ways..(note, im not trying to shield the student..)
another thing that i'll like to say is that many of the people who have posted are not actually concerned with what actually happened..rather, they'll like to see the student being punished, regardless of what actually happened, simply because he is from an elite school. honestly, so what if he came from a good school? just because a certain guy's daughter happened to be from an elite school doesnt mean that everyone else is screwed up too..is there any point in actually hating the elites to such an extent? dont you think that's generalisation carried too far?
sigh
Don't care which school or country he's from...everyone's the same. -

a pm i got from someone
just becos he cannot win in an argument, he tried using such childish way, like saying ppl can't understand him, maybe he is so confused that he cannot even understand himself.
i really pitied him, really his parents must be thinking they should have gave birth to a piece of chao siao instead of him, at least a piece chao siao still can be eaten
don't worry, i know u r unfilial, disloyal, and untruthful. we can see from yr posts, they r damn dumb n full of lies -
does this mean that if someone from a not-too-good school whack someone, nobody will bother if he gets punished or not...?Originally posted by mystiv:my view..

a lot of people keep saying its because he is from an elite sch
but he still committed a crime, elite or no elite
so end of day, its just a matter of what punishment meted out
we can throw thousand and one possibilities, end of day, the truth is that he did bashed the driver up
the sad thing is not that people are after his blood
the sad thing is that because our soft heartedness, we keep giving chance to kids so much that they now become ready twisted liars and emphathy gatherer if they have to
this is the sad part
and this thing is happening to our kids nowadays, the society is degenerating and we still refuse to take action

preciselyOriginally posted by tokyofire:punch = assault
So simple.. yet many dont understand.
pushing bus driver, or knock his while flailing arm is so far off from standing there and bashing him up
if TNP is sensationalising to the point of lying, the boy or his parents reserve the right to sue TNP -

ya even if they from HCI doesn't mean they can be cordoned easily, just because they're the elites of Singapore in the near future. Even elites of Singapore can be jailed.Originally posted by Chin Eng:you echo my sentiments exactly.... Hwa Chong or not, it is no the issue....

Suspended?
Why?
I would recommend that ill-mannered chap to stop schooling. He should join the army, let's see wat he face when he punch his PC in the face. -
UNHAPPY DOESN'T MEANS CONFUSED. MAKE YOUR FACTS RIGHT LAH!!!!!Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:You are very unhappy BECAUSE you are one confused person... but of course you do not think yourself confused... if you know that you are confused, you stop being confused immediately... life is like that... hahaha
"birds of a feather flock together" confused people will prefer to be together with other confused people... does not prove anything... I mean, do you get along with people you have no choice but to be together with, like your colleagues and family (family don't really count because they tend to learn to cope with you)
I DON'T AGREE WITH THE STATEMENT "BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER".
IF YOU AGREE TO THIS STATEMENT, THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY AM I IN REPUBLIC POLYTECHNIC.

I don't understand a guy studying JC still so uncivilised, like uneducated like that. It is very stupid to punch the driver as he maybe charge for assaulting a driver for just a small problem.

Confusion leads to unhappiness. You are of course not "totally" confused. From your posts, on the other hand, you have displayed many "fallacies" in your head.Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:UNHAPPY DOESN'T MEANS CONFUSED. MAKE YOUR FACTS RIGHT LAH!!!!!

When I said that birds of a feather flock together I meant that your argument that you have a group of friends proves that you are not "unsociable" is not valid.
Whether or not you are unsociable would depend on how well you get along with people who are not your friends. You choose your friends... the chances are very high that you chose them as friends because you can get along with them and they, you.
Why are you in RP? Could it be because:
1. You are good at passing exams?
2. You had lots of tuition?
3. You are bad in certain areas but you are good in studies?
4. You are good for memorizing and regurgitating facts from books but when you are asked to form your own opinions you fail miserably? -
