Ready for a pop quiz? A video of Prince Harry of Wales clowning around with his army friends has caused an uproar in England because:

  • A. The Prince mocks the national anthem by pretending to ring off the phone with his grandmother, saying “God save you.”
  • B. The video is full of crude sexual references, including mocking an army comrade as “gay” and “queer.”
  • C. He referred to a fellow soldier as “our little Paki friend, Ahmed.”

If you guessed “C,” you’re correct. Both “A” and “B” are also true, but it was mainly the “Paki” that compelled an apology from Harry, third in line for the throne. Over at PJM, I ask, Is Harry a bigot?
