        This video was an experiment to see the customers’ reaction. The waitress was helping the Down syndrome customer, Peter, to order. Mike was being rude to the waitress, asking her to have his order first. Being impatient, he claimed that he had waited for fifteen minutes. Additionally, he thought Peter should have had a guardian with him. On witnessing this, first madam, who was a teacher that used to teach mentally challenged children, stopped Mike’s contemptuous behavior. Her number one motto: Treat everybody that the way you would like to be treated. This is the golden rule. The second and third man lashed out at Mike. They said that Mike should relax and be patient. Eventually, with a little emotion, they told Mike to get out and find another restaurant instead. Meanwhile, the producer of the experiment will approach the customers and explain their goal and appreciate their help.

        Obviously, Peter required more time to order. However, Mike used some insulting words to humiliate Peter. For example, stupid, retarded and so on. His discrimination against a disable person was disrespectful. Mike can call another waiter to have his order or say it in a tactful way. Degrading others is the worst thing that we shouldn’t do. To sum up, we should bear a kind heart to help those in need, after all, helping others is a virtue.
