That video was apparently taken when Harry was 21. While very unacceptable it does seem to be what many immature young men would get up to at about that age. It may not reflect his values - but what the society he runs in believes. However considering his Grandfather Phillip (who is better not seen or heard imo) who had a hand in their upbringing it might be he's been given some education that needs to be "unlearned". The comment about the officer training at Sandhurst is probably relevant. The fact he is a Royal Prince may well be the only reason this was even noted. Has anyone thought to examine the OTHER graduates and their behavior? (that could be quite telling) I seem to recall he wasn't the only one displaying racist and insulting behavior from that social strata.
Frankly it looks as if you have an entire class going.. do as I say.. not as I do and thumbing their noses at the lower classes.. STILL.
At least it appears your Prince William has some sense and decency. (I don't follow the royals so I only know that he hasn't appeared to be in any stupid scandals)
