THE
BULLIES BABBLE
by
K. Siladass
It
is universal knowledge that a person of impeccable upbringing will guard his
tongue; his lips will not utter filth. The contrary is true of a person who has
had undisciplined upbringing, however erudite that person maybe. A person who
knows how to guard the tongue is really wise, but that cannot be said of a
person who has not the ability to control the tongue.
An
insane person knows not what he is talking. No one should bother about an
insane’s person sheer babbling as the innate ability to think no longer dwells
in him or her. Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK), who hides in London is in this
category, has insulted Dato Ambiga and Indian women in a most degrading manner. His
gutter language reveals his guttersnipe attitude.
On
the other hand if he is indeed sane and is driven by other motives to insult
Ambiga, it is not strange either that those who resort to such foul language
are bankrupt with ideas to debate or reason, hence they rely on their habitual
lowly vulgarity.
Aside
this, locally there are calls to Ambiga to confirm what had been stated in a
London suit brought against Sarawak Reporter’s Clare Brown by PAS leader
Dato Hadi. Those who clamour for the information Ambiga is alleged to have disclosed
conveniently ignore the fact that it is legally wrong for a potential witness
in a pending case to discuss or elaborate as to what had been disclosed in a
pleading and which could be an issue at the trial. How did these people who are
after Ambiga fail to observe this simple legal norm? Is it political vendetta?
or is it sheer bullying attitude? Those who indulge in this unsavoury kind of
activity bring shame to Malaysia, and its people.
