To be fair, Chinese are not particularly upset about the kid making such an offensive comment.
They are upset mostly because it's not a live broadcast.
Jimmy and ABC had plenty of time to decide not to air such show, just like ABC would not air a show talking about killing all Jews or blacks.
On top of that, Jimmy even dared to arrogantly ask "Shall we allow the Chinese to live?"
They are not blaming the kid, they are blaming Jimmy and ABC.
ABC and Jimmy's apologies were also less than sincere.
If you don't think you did anything wrong, don't apologize.
Don't sound like it was an accident, and certainly don't sound like you were misunderstood, and in fact, blaming others for not being able to understand you correctly.
Racism is not a joke and not acceptable even in our free-speech society.
