Amos reaps what he sows



According to Amos’s recent posts on FB, he has been evicted from his current shelter due to his controversial video/views advocating for pedophilia (yes its true, Amos thinks pedophilia is ok), and so now he is “sleeping on a couch owned by modern-day hippies”.
Even more serious, he’s also received death threats. And yet, he still has the arrogance to spell out his many “requirements” (like free Wifi) for anyone who wants to take pity on this dumbass and offer him shelter for a pittance. 



Amos thinks that there are stupid suckers out there who would become his de-facto parents - providing everything that he WANTS with little to no rent.





Is Amos’s latest plight at all surprising to anyone? 
                                          
There are some commenters who think that Amos was simply trolling for attention/shock-value (yes) to boost his flagging YouTube viewership/income (yes) and he doesn't really support pedophilla (I highly doubt so).
There are also an increasing number of Americans who are actively calling for Amos’s asylum status to be revoked and be expelled from the country. 


Sorry America, Singapore has a “Sold Goods not Returnable” policy. You can keep Amos for yourselves. We don’t want him either.


Whatever Amos’s motivation for his pedophilia video, all I can say is too bad dumbass. You reap what you sow. Amos's actions and words are what have landed him in his current situation. 


Amos and his supporters like to think that America has freedom of speech, which allows for any, and everything to be said or done without consequence. 

What naïve Amos is only now realizing to his horror; even in the Land of the Free, there will be direct and adverse consequences to what you say or do.

Why we have little to no confidence in SG's "Activists"




Tell me lah.. how to believe or support these Activists when they have a credibility/trust issue?

You can be passionate about your cause BUT that does not give you (or your cause) the license to bend the truth or manufacture half-truths or cast any baseless aspersions. Such actions neither aids you, nor help the cause you are championing.

In fact, in the eyes of the public, such lies will destroy any shred of credibility you or your cause may have - no matter how worthy the cause.

It is not called a "raid" for nothing. You think that these criminal elements are going to play nice when they are about to be arrested for their illegal activities? Grow some brain-cells can?



And further more, by casting such baseless accusations at the police, you are putting the interests of one group (ie: sex workers) over the interests of another group (ie: the police/general public).

Who are you to decide whose interests are more important? Are you saying the for the sake of your interests/cause, the ends justify the means?

The trust between the public and the police is paramount. It allows the police to carry out their work without any unnecessary duress or bias, and it enables the public to believe that the police are carrying out their duties without favor or fear, to the spirit as well as the letter of the law.

Look at what is happening in other countries where there is low trust/respect between the police and the public. Justice takes a back seat to all the political bickering and posturing. There are charges of corruption and abuse of power being thrown about. The police force becomes increasingly ineffective against crime and are regarded as lacking legitamacy in their actions. Crime levels go up. Is that what you want to see happening in S'pore? (See more here)

As such, any allegations of wrong-doing by the police must be properly reported to the appropriate authorities and be investigated.  And if any wrong-doing is found, either by the police or by the accuser, then the guilty parties must be punished according to the full-extend of the law.

And this is not just an isolated case of an Activist trying to stretch the truth in order to gain public sympathy.

Other NGOs/causes have been found to be taking a more than liberal interpretation of the facts when they post their "complaints" about the Govt or {Insert Govt agency name here}. (See here).

If you cannot advocate for your cause without dealing in the facts, then you are simply a waste of everyone's time. Don't pretend to be ignorant or claim innocent sharing on social media when you post such baseless accusations without any evidence.

Interestingly, she has already taken down her posts.

So what does that mean? The allegations made in her post are serious charges. And we believe if the police were found guilty of these charges, there would be serious consequences.

Was she lying? Does she stand by what she had posted? Or was it simply a vicious, unjustified and baseless attack on the police, made to advance her cause? If she truly believes what she posted, then she should be making a report to the police or CPIB. Where's her integrity?





And here is what K Shanmugam (Min. for Home Affairs and Law) had to say:
