Are Racist comments OK from friends?

It is clear why CAB gagged Symonds.

"However, Symonds said some rival cricketers could afford to make a
racist comment without raising his ire.


'Even with opposition players, if I do know them well and they
want to joke about something like that, it doesn't stir me up so what's happened
is something I and the Australian boys have taken very seriously. It (the racism
affair) is a really difficult thing for me to comment on as it hasn't been
totally resolved,' he said."


Symonds selects his victims and his feeling of hurt and by doing so he has revealed himself as an opportunist. Sadly he has dragged his team to new lows.

Does he deserve to be in the Australian team?
