Twitter posts are serious business, and this guy is a good example of how you can fuck yourself by forgetting that Twitter is a public medium.

Having said that, I think we should consider whether the dude really deserved the incredible backlash against him. Being retributive can give us a sense of righteousness, but in the end all this comes down to is punishing a guy for embracing the "wrong" subculture.

edit: I can understand being uncomfortable about his comments, and possibly even wanting to fire him over them. What I take issue with is the hateful attitude people have taken towards him. It's (imo) hypocritical to call someone a "fratboy" while deriding them for derogatory comments.
