omfg give me a break, anyone in the military knows these "racist" terms are just jokes. everyone in the military makes fun of everyone else including themselves.

Who gives a shit, people need to lighten up.

There's way to much PC bullshit in this world already.

Just because it is intended to be a joke, does not make it acceptable. As a prince, he should be acting in higher level of care and attention, and especially his words. What may be acceptable in a normal citizen would be unacceptable given that the person who said it is part of the Royal family.

I'd rather see people be their true selves.

I'd rather peoples true selves didn't involve racism

Although in this case it's pretty tame, I'm just speaking in general. I hear this line a lot.

This is the same goof who dressed up as a Nazi for Halloween and didn't see anything wrong with it.

I'm sure the expectations for a prince is SLIGHTLY higher than just any other 20 something year old cracking jokes

Really? Tell that to the Taliban and the Americans. Or the Israelis and the Hamas...or...well I could go on all day.

people have nothing better to do with their lives but criticize others...

Harvey Specter 01-12-2009 02:09 PM

Harry could have had half "rag head" brothers and sisters if his mommy was still alive.
