Now ask the same question in European countries.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iTm6qun.png[/IMG] Love this.
Well, my country doesn't suck that bad apparently. I was very happy to see the overwhelmingly positive responses. Warms my heart to know that most of us here are still good people. Much like Muslims, I think its just a very vocal minority of bad ones that ruin the opinion of us.

Not really surprising considering NYC is extremely culturally diverse, you'd probably get a far different answer if you asked in a different state.
I liked it. Usually with those "What do Americans think" they show only the stupid, uneducated and racist answers. It's nice to see a more accurate representation of American people.
what if the interviewer wasnt arab lets get a Caucasian Muslim like russian/turk or w.e eastern European country ask the same questions or even an Irish decedent to ask these questions [editline]11th June 2013[/editline] plus he shows the lady from the south to have the bigot response,was this for a reason? his own propaganda?
[QUOTE=Handsome Matt;40997797]I can't tell what you're implying.. Do you expect a negative or positive impact because I'm from the UK and the opinion is pretty much the same as shown in the video, nobody should be judged upon the actions of a minority in a religion.[/QUOTE] Frenchies are notorious for extreme racism. The north is starting to have a bit of a scare. But the real issue isn't Islam up here. It's social inequality and the government just stuffing foreigners some place where they'll never learn of our culture, get frustrated by local hate and start shit. Social problems aren't the same as a religion being borked. [editline]12th June 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Mr Shadyface;41000090]I liked it.

this is the complete opposite that I hear over here in Kentucky, my family goes got a lot of islamicphobia along with fox news lovers.

The only reason we say "americans are stupid" or "french people are rude" or "swedish people are racist" is because that's the the media and shit portrays those people. I could easily make a video called "(american city) on asian people" and ONLY show the uneducated racist fucks' opinions, and somebody out there would believe that everyone in that city is like that. On the flip side, I could've made a video like the one in the OP and showed off some positive people with good opinions. Tell a lie long enough, and people will start to believe it.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;41000163]How do you know this was accurate? What if this is a rarity.[/QUOTE] I can confirm as a person living in relative proximity to New York city that northerners on the east coast are pretty accepting. Sometimes they're not overly educated but they're for sure more accepting.
