I believed it would reaction vary greatly depending on location. In some places something similar as is happening would still happen in other locals such as parts of Pennsylvania it will be accepted as boys being boys.

If the chants were just about Aspergers unless it was directed at little kids while still varying would be much more widely accepted as a joke.

I would feel the same way as black people did when they chanted their racist crap. The "chanters" should also receive the same punishment.

We wouldn't have ever seen the video. There would be nothing to grab the attention of the general public.

Sad, but true.

Most of time people doing this are not stupid enough to post it.
