If They Can't Find Prejudice They Create It

For the third time in about a year a network news agency in search of a story on hate in America and can't find any decides to stage some alla "Candid Camera" antics. ABC decided they needed to prove latent bias in America so they hired a couple actors and rigged a Texas bakery with cameras to record the actions of customers. First they dressed an actress in a traditional Muslim hijab or headscarf to play a supposed customer and put another actor beind the deli counter that would refuse her service and then filmed the reactions of unknowing customers and called it a news story. Newsbusters and Michelle Malkin have all the sordid details about what they didn't find, plus LGF points out this was done at the behest of CAIR, a radical islamic group that sees prejudice behind every tree that's not muslim. In fact hate crimes against muslims are way below those committed against Jews according to the FBI and reported in IBD. There were 156 religiously motivated crimes against muslims and 967 against Jews in '06, not to mention all the moonbats that blame all the world's ills on Israel and the USA. Maybe ABC should send their cameras into the mosques and madrasses here in America to find those that spew hate on a daily basis and report on that.
I will openly admit it, I am a bigot, I hate islam and all that it stands for but that would not prevent me from taking a muslim's money in a business transaction though a private business should have the right to refuse to do business. In a slightly related bit of nonsense a private wedding photagrapher turned down a lesbian couple and is getting sued over it, how stupid is that?

it must have been that the people they were trying to catch somehow KNEW that they were being watched. that MUST be the explanation. it couldn't possibly be that the predujice doesn't exist.

well, i agree with you on your point about hating islam, etc. and on the lesbian couple. i should have the right to refuse service to anyone i want to.

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. Why would anyone hate it?

Goat said...

Amalek, yep, by forced submission or death as their vile holey book teaches, sura 9 for example. It is a pseudo-religion based on the ravings of an intoxicated desert pirate only consumed with himself and his personal power through any means. It claims that man must submit to God and then it demands that man submit to islam and the word of a man that was nothing more than a warlord.
I won't argue with idiots asking stupid questions, I just delete them but I wanted to blast you for a bit. Have a good day being a &*%^*(^%~.

I hate Islam too, Goat, and if that makes me a bigot, then I'm proud of it!

I'm not surprised to hear that ABC did that. Making up stories isn't anything new to them. I heard about the photographer who refused to cover a homosexual wedding. She has every right to do so, but it seems the left believes that conservatives and/or Christians have no rights whatsoever. Only homosexuals, Atheists and Muslims have the right to be offended!
