crapola. I politely said I wasn't interested and they were polite, TR>RS>said "Thank you," and moved on to another passenger.
Wait!!!!!! You mean you didn't jump up and slap the nearest one to
you! Like you slapped that minister in his own church? In front of
his congregation?
It was either an off day for him or he really was afraid. Of course the JB>more believable explanation is that it never happened.
They approached me, turned out they were from a church group and TR>RS>they were asking me about Jesus being my savior and the usual TR>RS>crapola. I politely said I wasn't interested and they were polite, TR>RS>said "Thank you," and moved on to another passenger.

Lovely story, but for some reason I don't believe it. Call
it experience gained
Did I think I was going to be hassled? Maybe robbed and/or assaulted?
I'd be lying if I said no.
I did think so until they started their spiel.
So, if we are to believe your story, you were nervous with
the appearance of young blacks in, as you called it
"'gangsta' outfits" yet you claim Juan Williams is, for
better words, a terrible person for being nervous about a
group dressed in traditional Muslim attire?
Have you read any of Juan Williams' books? Did you know he
has been intimately involved in the civil rights movement
for decades?
It's racism, religious hatred, and white supremacism.
I'm sure Juan Williams would get a laugh out of that
comment.
You havent said a single word about Juan williams being canned.
Why should I?
While anti-Muslim stereotypes are the norm and encouraged at Faux "news,"
at NPR they are verboten.

You mean stereotypes like this from Jesse Jackson? ""There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the
street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery," Jackson
told the audience. "Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved. . .
After all we have been through," he said. "Just to think we can't
walk
down our own streets, how humiliating.""
Or President Obama's grandmother, "a woman who once confessed her fear
of black men who passed by her on the street?" "The point I was
making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person who, uh, if she sees
somebody on the street that she doesn't know there's a reaction that's been been bred into our experiences that don't go away"
All of us have those irrational fears.
A few years ago, 4 or 5 black kids got on a city bus, I was riding on.
They were wearing the "gangsta" outfit, complete with backwards caps and baggy pants.
They approached me, turned out they were from a church group and they
were asking me about Jesus being my savior and the usual crapola.
I politely said I wasn't interested and they were polite, said "Thank
you," and moved on to another passenger.

Where is the screed you write whenever a talking head says something
improper about a class of people.

This is between NPR and a guy who broke his contract and got fired.
If Bill O'Reilly said all blacks were drug thugs, liked watermelons and welfare, Williams would have slugged O'Reilly. At the very least cussed O'Reilly out.
But it's ok for a black guy to spout vicious stereotypes about people "dressing and acting Muslim?"

So a black guy comes up with this vague notion of "Muslim garb,"
(whatever the hell it is,) ignoring the fact that all of the 9-11 hijackers, and all the attempted terrorists here in the US wore the same clothes all the rest of us wear.
"He looks Muslim, I'm scared, oogie oogie oogie..."
It's just another example of the right-wing meme, "He/She looks
different, so they must be 'the Other' that Glenn Beck told me to be scared of."
It's racism, religious hatred, and white supremacism.
