Proof that stereotypes are often massively wrong (1 Viewer)

I guess everyone has heard of the shooting in Sydney Australia and many have seen the video of the man who took down one of the shooters and ended up with bullet wounds for his actions.

Here is some more information on this man and some of those who support him. For those who missed the video it is included.

I was wondering about that guy.

And this is a huge middle finger to all idiots who judge people for their religion or ethnicity.

I'm trying to avoid politics, but you only need half a word I guess.

Not that I need PROOF that stereotypes are often massively wrong. I tend to give my fellow man the benefit of the doubt. It's only the sickos and idiots that get all the attention.

Having lived in the Middle East for over five years, I can attest to the fact that like people everywhere, the communities there have heroes and villains, leaders and cowards, and like everywhere else most people of Arabic, Persian, or Muslim groups are basically good folks.

I reserve my ire for the assholes who use religion to justify barbarity.

Exactly. I wish more people would highlight the fact that Ahmed El Ahmad, the 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life, being shot twice, to save his neighbours celebrating Hanukkah is a Muslim. Yes, here we have a case of an average, every day Muslim stepping in to help save his Jewish neighbours. We should be celebrating this and not just going on claiming Australia is anti semitic and ramping up the hateful rhetoric.

My father taught me that all males are gentlemen and all females are ladies until they prove otherwise.
