Needs to be seen to be believed:
A man walks through the crowd at the Ground Zero protest and is mistaken as a Muslim. The crowd turns on him and confronts him. The man in the blue hard hat calls him a coward and tries to fight him. The tall man who I think was one of the organizers tried to get between the two men. Later I caught up with the man who's name is Kenny. He is a Union carpenter who works at Ground Zero. We discussed what a scary moment that was for him. I told him that I hoped it did not ruin his day.
Here's some other people who were unfortunate enough to be mistaken for those dreadful "Mohammedans":
Coptic Christians Look Too Muslim To Anti-Mosque Morons
Marine reservist attacked Greek priest he mistook for terrorist
Indian immigrant shot to death; Arizona man held in 2 attacks
This country is so fucked right now.
