My reaction to the badmouthing of Miss Earth USA to the Philippines

I have just heard of this on the news a while ago that Miss Earth USA, Nicole Kelley just badmouthed the Philippines specifically about our local shows where Filipino is frequently used as it's first language. Miss Earth USA also made an apology via Youtube stating that her Facebook account was hacked thus this was the reason why her account contained a racist wall post but for some reason, I still doubt it. 

Here's a screenshot of her alleged badmouthing on Facebook:

For my reaction: First of all, to Miss Earth USA, if you really posted the racist remark yourself on Facebook and you just used your account being hacked as an excuse, badmouthing any country including your own makes you a disgrace of your country. What if you were in our place Miss Earth USA? You would probably react and defend your country as well so you better forget about complaining or stop complaining if you already did if you already found out about this. Second, just because you represent Miss Earth in your country doesn't mean you are above the law. Racism is a punishable crime. Third, in a country, it's local TV shows are usually broadcasted using the certain country's national language. Here in the Philippines, our local TV shows are usually broadcasted in Filipino which is our national language. You better deal with the fact that we use our national language in broadcasting our local TV shows. Not everything in this world revolves around you. 

Before I end this post, to Miss Earth USA, you are to face two things: we can either forgive you or give you the persona non grata treatment and if your account on Facebook really got hacked, I advice you to send your explanation video to media outlets and maybe people will be able to forgive you with less doubts. 

To the hacker of her account: you are still to the face two things I previously mentioned but if her account really got hacked by you, whoever you are, expect your conscience to bother you and get ready to face the music!
