Related: About this forumTYT: Man Bullies Muslim At Town Hall
A town hall meeting over the construction of a new mosque erupted into chaos. The man yelled that all muslims are terrorists and to shut your mouth! Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola (Think Tank), hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A routine meeting about plans to build a mosque turned into an ugly racist display when at least two men stood up and started screaming insults at Muslims attending the meeting...
Video of the meeting shows a burly man yelling and pointing his finger at Shalaby.
Every one of you are terrorists, I dont care what you say, he yells. Every Muslim is a terrorist.
He also tells Shalaby, Shut your mouth. I dont want to hear your mouth. I will do everything that I can do to keep you from doing what youre doing. It will happen. That will happen.*

He's allowed to go to the polls and vote for who our next president will be.

Not that a guy with those anger issues will ever use them. I mean, he looks and sounds like a pretty emotionally stable law-abiding citizen to me.

You don't take "high roads" with bullies. You SMASH THEM ! There is no reforming them.
So either SMASH them, or stop whining. Period !

People like that have a clear physical agenda and that's really the only thing they care about.

And John Iadarola is no wimp, either.
This is a great dialog, which is why The Young Turks is so fucking awesome.
It is shameful that MS-NBC let Cenk go.
