A suspected bias attack on four Jewish subway riders in New York City has resulted in a friendship between the Jewish victims and the Muslim college student who came to their aid.
Walter Adler is calling Hassan Askari a hero for intervening when Adler and three friends were assaulted on a subway train in lower Manhattan on Friday night.

The response I gave was because you based or comment on a leftist stereotype of the South.

The ringleader of the self-described Christians involved in this subway attack is an individual who was convicted of aggravated assault in a previous incident, and was waiting to serve a six-month custodial sentence before he got invovled in this little dustup. He's a thug. The real question is why there was a "waiting" period before this convicted thug was locked up....

"So far, the list includes the four alleged victims, the ten alleged perps, any other witnesses, the police, CBS, and the NY Post. Dont forget the Muslim guy. Hes the kingpin."
Isn't it amazing how they all got together to set this up? The conspiracy was actually organized by the Bavarian Illuminati, with portions subcontracted out to Opus Dei, the Bilderburg Group, and the Learned Elders of Zion.

Where were Adler's friends? 10 guys beat up Askari while Adler and friends who also engaged in the taunting escaped injury?
"That a random Muslim kid helped some Jewish kids, that's what's positive about New York," said Adler, 23, who suffered a broken nose and a lip wound.

The real question is why there was a "waiting" period before this convicted thug was locked up.... The usual reason is that such individuals who have a good lawyer and parents willing to put up money for him can have him out on remand to "get his affairs in order" before he goes into the can.
Hence my sympathy for his parents - they have bent over backward to save him from himself and he keeps slapping them in the face.

There are 8 million people in the city proper, and another 10 million in the nearby suburbs. Do you have ANY idea how many morons we get on the subway? LOL!
Or how many post nonsense in newspapers and on forums?
Judging all Christians by the horrible actions of criminals "conveniently" labeled as "christians" by the news "writers" is way too common.

I invite you to point out where in my post did I make a bigoted statement.
And maybe before you accuse people of being bigots, you should 1) take a remedial course in reading comprehension and 2) look up “bigot” first.
To: Slapshot68
Not to put too fine a point on it, you sure sounded bigoted against people living in the south in your post at #7...

I was doing a comparison of social acceptance between NYC and the deep south. If it came off as bigoted, then I was wrong to have said it.
To: Slapshot68
Perhaps. I guess we know who the Southerners are now...

I actually live on the eastern shore of Maryland. There are people this far north that still speak of black people as “colored.” I’ve been to NYC quite a bit and I don’t see the same sort of prejudices that exist in more rural areas of the country.

I spent some of my younger days in the south, and can vaguely recall restrooms for men, women, and colored.
Been on a couple visits recently, the South is way different now.
It's as if both sides finally said 'the Hell with it' and decided to try actually getting along for a change.
