some people can never stop complaining with a running nose!! So if some Nepalese brothers got butcherd in iraq we we should turn a blind eye to any other injustice that happens elsewhere and just keep thinking of that iraq incident, right?
You are a human first, then comes your nationality!!
it just shows how justice loving and kind some Americans are, period
it's just that they can't stand the f1 visa or some potential immigrant. but once you're a green card or a citizen they will always step up and protect you and your rights...
it's a great country.. i love that older gentleman who defended the girl... god bless him... blessed are the ones who got to or are getting to assimilate into this great society...
देश अनुसार को भेष नगरे यही हुन्छ। अमेरिका मा बसेर कट्टर muslim को पहिचान के का लागी? किन दिनु?
In the video, Atleast there were some americans to support her. A girl was even arguing/crying for her muslim friend. Should any american expect such generous support in a muslim community.
basic human rights should never be taken away from anyone. I am an atheist but still believe that people have the right to religion. As long as they are not hurting or offending others, why would you discriminate?...It's sad to see such kind of incidents where people do not speak up for others' rights. I mean it could be anyone at that girl's place.
Some ignorant Islamophobes in here. That idiot shopkeeper and those who support him are no less disgusting than any Muslim fanatics who hate non-Muslims. If you cannot tolerate others' preferences for their own self, you are a bloody racist whether you live in Saudi Arabia or America. Guess what Saudi Arabia is a Islamic fundamentalist country whereas the US claims herself as the messiah of democracy, freedom and human rights. Those who defend such discrimination and blatant racism don't really deserve to be a part of a free society. I rest my case.
White people have KKK. Muslims have Jihaists. There are ignorant people everywhere in the world. Just take a good look at Nepal. Our ignorant politicians have brought upon us the Madhesi problem, Pahadi problem etc. etc. We do the same to Indians call them Khaali sisi chana chatpat. etc etc
hmmmm thats not a representation of whole America. where was this experiment done maybe in some small town. many ppl were defending her . so i guess they r treated well as a whole. there are some ppl who are prejudiced. but i wonder if they had done it in NY or some other liberal state it would be very different. good show
The real takeaway for me is the sense of outrage amongst people who stepped up and raised their voices against injustice on a complete stranger. That's the America I admire. There will always be nut cases and losers like some of those shown in the video but I am surprised that in a society where people generally like to stick to their own business, so many chose to speak up and confront the issue.
I can't say for certain how Muslims are treated, but from this video what I can tell is that you can't get away forever with treating people, Muslims or otherwise, badly in this country.
Guchha, what a ignorant racist pig you are! sorry for the words but couldn't help it. there is a limit to ignorance and irrationality.
you sound like one islamophobic but failed to learn and realize that the term 'islamophobia' is deceptive and the phobia is actually illogical.
the world media is saturated with the terms islamic fundamentalism, islamic radicalism and islamic terrorism,
causing all the havoc or negative backlash against believers of the
religion. we need to separate 'islamic' out of these generally
unwelcome terms. maybe the discontent is not with the islam, but with
the very bad aspects associated with the religion. negative stereotypes
abound because the majority of those perpetrating world terrorism such
as al qaeda are Moslems.
but does it mean that all the people in islam have to bear the
responsibility for the unruly characteristics of some of the people in
the religion, who have nothing to do with the moderate lots? certainly
not! it may be only a coincidence that the majority of world terrorists
are Moslems. it's not ethical to associate islam with the unruly
characteristics followed by some of its less moderate believers!
learn something about islam before making your stupid ignorant comments here, foolio!

awatar, i mean no advocacies for islam but no disrespect to the religion either. but from what i have learnt, some of the fundamentalists have mis-interpreted Koran. A few selected verses from the Koran are often misquoted to perpetuate the myth that islam promote violence, and extorts its followers to kill those outside the pale of the islam. some of those verses were created when Moslems were waging a war against the Mushriqs or Pagans of Makkah andhence those hate ensuing quotes. but one has to learn and comprehend the essence of Koran in depth to understand that it does not actually relay vehement
hatred towards other believers. A little knowledge is dangerous.

gundaa, fair point. in fact, i was thinking the same. cannot generalize this study for the whole of the US as the sample population was not distributed throughout all regions, states and cities. but it's certainly a teaser for sure.
HAHAHA birbhadra, no i don't claim to be an expert. and yes, this thread was about how part of america stand up against injustice-- neither the video nor this thread was meant to advocate any particular religion or race but some islamophobics in here dragged the discussion to the utter disgust of insinuating their lopsided hatred against islam as a religion and that's why i had to chime in. as i said, i am neither advocating nor defending islam but merely giving a shot at opening the eyes of those hate-mongering blinds.
there are hundreds of videos on youtube and on the web which have--deliberately or ignorantly--brewed potion of anger and hatred against islam without telling the full story of the religion. i just wanted to point them out--nothing more or nothing less either. there are fundamentalists in all religions, just the degree of extremism is variant. let's assume, if tomorrow, some of the extremists of the religion that those islamophobics believe in, start spreading rumors and hatred against other believers, will they come to defend their religion? i am sure they will. talk of hypocrisy and double standards! it's not always what it seems like from outside. inside stories could be radically different.
My feloow bhedas and Bakhri's We are talking about a country that did not serve the black people on the same table up untill 40 yrs ago. They did not even ngive blacks a right to vote about the same time. So this is nothing new. But we should not generalize all Americans because of these few Morons. There will always be Morons everywhere regardless of where you go. Even in our very own Nepali society, just read some of the postings above.
