Re: I'd imagine the reaction to my preaching the bible in Saudi would be comparable to the reaction I could get in the middle of the redneck county in Texas if I were to dress in "Islamic" cloth and call for Jihad and support of OBL. Dateline NBC already tried this and it didn't have the desired effect they wanted. Too bad this proves your theory dead wrong. Monday, May 15, 2006 Dateline NBC Stages NASCAR “Racism Sting” Section: News Published: Waubonsee Insight, May 2006 Issue Dateline NBC, in what most news outlets have considered an attempt to portray NASCAR fans as racist, staged an operation to insert Muslim-looking men into a NASCAR event while using video cameras to record fans' reactions. [snip] To Dateline's dismay, these men did not even cause a ripple in the stands. Ramsey Poston, NASCAR's managing director of corporate communications, stated that there were “no incidents” reported at the track, and various fans that this writer spoke to noticed the Muslim men as an oddity only because they were constantly trailed by an NBC camera entourage. Martinsville's director of public relations, Mike Smith, says that NBC's camera crew wasn't as unnoticed as they thought. “Our security knew immediately that they were here,” Smith explained, “They were not disturbed [by any fans].” ianessling.blogspot.com
