Rednecks, Racing, And Prayer Mats...

It's been reported upon all across the web, so what the hell, me too. NBC's Dateline sent some moslems to a NASCAR event, prayer mats and all, to see what response would be forthcoming from those dastardly speed loving rednecks, and, well, there WAS no response. Nada. Zip. What a dud.

Do you think they really believed there'd be a lynching? Now, I'm a big fan of insider/investigative journalism, I really enjoyed the efforts of George Plimpton, for example, but NBC sort of stretched the bounds of credulity on this one.

BUT...but to make up for it and prove to us that there really WAS some journalistic intent behind all of this, I'd like to see them send a Christian to a moslem-only event and report back to us.

Beg pardon? You say that's been done before? And the moslems cut off peoples heads, videotaped the whole thing, and USA Today even featured yours truly offering a response to it all?

Point taken.

maybe they need to wait until we have another terrorist attack on American soil, Then there might be a story.
