Don't say I teach you one ah ..
but we being under 18, have an advantage. Look at it from this
perspective:
A) So you go ahead and voice your opinions, the typical singaporean
mindset will mean that most of the adults wouldn't give a
shyt.
B) Even if someone decides that you're being overly outspoken, and
decides to file suit, a public apology would resolve it. In any
case nobody would dare to blow it up. Come on, a supposedly wiser
and more mature adult taking on a 14 year old kid who's just
passionate about his nation and it's political governance? What the
fish?
C) Even if they decide to press charges, you will be tried in a
juvenile court (14 yrs old), trust me, I am certain the magistrate
will find that the prosecution will be unable to meet the
evidential burden required to convict you of slander or instigating
treason. And somehow if they do (which will probably only happen if
you decide to burn the flag to prove your point), you will be able
to submit a plea of leniancy or a plea in mitigation on grounds
that you're a kid - the media would probably help do 99% of the
work.
D) and if they did press charges, Singapore would probably riot
against that joker, and listen up to what you say because you
obviously have something critical to voice for a 40 year old man to
pee in his pants
E) Not to mention the skills you develop with regards to effective
conversation, and logical analysis.
Don't worry, if you listen to your teacher, one day, you might find
yourself in his position, telling another kid to stfu.
