Student jailed for racist remarks

When you get the chance - read the article on the Yahoo website about English Premier League Footballer Fabrice Muamba here.

Then answer one of the following questions:

What can we learn from this in relation to
  • Hurtful remarks about others
  • Social media (facebook, twitter etc)
  • Our RISE Values?

  1. I think stuff like Facebook and Twitter shouldn't be that open. It doesn't help that almost everyone in the world can see a harsh comment that would've been put on.

  2. In my opinion this looks like another example of where what the person meant to say has been taken the wrong way. It shows that you need to be very careful about what you post on social media sites especially if what you say can be taken two ways.

  3. I think that things like Facebook and Twitter are'nt very great. Some of the time, all you get from it is harsh comments. I still found this veryy interesting.

  4. I THINK THAT IS QUIET SAD TO BE HONEST,I THINK WHEN YOU ARE GOING ON FACEBOOK OR TWITTER MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO SAY AND MAKE SURE YOU TYPE SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE CAN NOT TAKE TWO WAYS.

  5. I think facebook and all those other social networks are pathetic and has caused lots of problems like the Muamba story. If you make a silly comment and you don't mean it , it could be taken the wrong way

  6. I think Facebook and twitter are stupid because people don't want to know what your doing every five minutes. I think the person that wrote that comment should of think before he wrote it.

  7. I think one way that we could learn from this in relation to our RISE values is that if we hold fast to them then we can never make a mistake like this rasist remark.

  8. I think twitter and facebook are abit silly because you never know what your comment could do to your life or to other peoples feelings.this is the same relation to our school values.they are our RISE values.you never know if your comment could go two different ways.

  9. I think that if you are using those kind of websites, you should use it appropriately and should not be use it for inappropriate reasons, in either cyber bullying or racist remarks.

  13. I think using social network sites such as Twitter and Facebook would be a really bad idea considering what happened to Liam Stacey.
