dinar_stud Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) American Soldier Responds To Anti-Muslim Comments In An Incredible Way on 'What Would You Do?' (VIDEO) "What Would You Do?" by ABC is a hidden camera series where people are put into ethical dilemmas, given the choice between passively accepting injustice and standing up for what they believe is right. This soldier didn't hesitate to speak up when a young man started harassing a Muslim cashier, refusing to be served by him because "he's a Muslim." The uniformed man defended freedom of religion for all, stating, "We live in America, he can have whatever religion he wants." "That's the reason I wear the uniform -- so anyone can live free in this country." When the producer arrived on the scene to explain that both the heckler and the cashier were both actors, the soldier downplayed his "heroic" response by saying, "If you're an American, you're an American. Period." Well said. Watch the video for the full encounter. The soldier part starts at the 5 min mark. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueT79ZPY9IM Edited September 11, 2013 by dinar_stud 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiexpat Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yes. Excellent post. I wish more people here would see this and see the stupidity of their mind-set. I have never had a problem with a Muslim (and I am Jewish). Not ONCE has a Muslim given me a hard time or attacked me in any way. Cant say the same for other religions. Dunno, just saying....cheers 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tankdude Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 That has to be the gutsiest E-4 I have ever seen. If they don't make him an NCO in the next 30 days (provided he has time in grade and time in service) it's a shame. It's nice to see someone who "gets it." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiexpat Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Walk into the nearest mosque, proclaim that you are jewish, and tell us how it goes... and WHY would I do that? That seems pretty stupid thing to do. Just like why don't you walk into the nearest biker bar and tell them, "anyone who rides a Harley is a H-O-M-O" and let me know where to send the flowers. Leaving people ALONE in their beliefs is what this is about. Don't like Muslins, do you? Probably hate Jews too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I gotta relax. Sometimes, parents forget to turn-off their PC's and who knows what children will get into. No parental control.

Oh shut the hell up. Walk into the nearest mosque, proclaim that you are jewish, and tell us how it goes... This is a synagogue right next to a mosque in Paramaribo, Surinam. They live in peace with each other. I was there last April. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelg Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 The only problem I have with the video is that the actor confronting the Muslim casher wore a "God Bless America" shirt. To me it was indicating that those who act this way would be the believers in God. Sorry, I don't by that for a minute. I think the video did bring out that those living in the USA have a right to live and worship as they please. Any stupid actions or words from individuals confronting a Muslim in this fashion needs a swift rebuke, as was given from several who heard the remarks. Great video, but I still don't like the implication that a believer in God would be the culprit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is read the posts in this forum. many claim to be christians and yet the words they spew are far from christian. I believe, i have seen it here on a day to day basis. Why do you think I posted the news and the video??? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelg Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yes, I have read some of their post. Whether they are Christian or not is up to God. If they have an attitude like the person in the video, then there is a need for some heart searching and repentance. My point is that the media is making the "Christian" the bad guy. They could have used any T-shirt slogan they wanted. Why this one? I believe there is more going on here. They didn't need to project any group and the shirt could have been blank, and the point would have been made. Their selection is questionable. From your last question (statement) you indicate that the reason you posted it was for those who are Christian? Is that what you meant? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is simple, the vast majority of people that would react like this person identify themselves as christian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
