I am Muslim. Do you trust me...

[one_voice]

Canadians have a reputation for being some of the world's kindest people. This video proves that to be true.

YouTuber AsoOmii Jay teamed up with Time Vision Productions to try out a social experiment called the "Blind Trust Project."

In order to test how Canadians would react, a blindfolded Muslim man stood at Dundas Square in downtown Toronto, with signs that read "I am a Muslim. I am labelled as a terrorist," and "I trust you. Do you trust me? Give me a hug."

The result was truly heartwarming.

1. I have to admit to a prejudice with this idea....

That is if you replaced the Muslim with a Teapartier, I would not want to hug them or trust them...


Muslims?

I will hug them all day long.

2. if he did this in some parts of the US

He would be greeted not with a hug, but with a bullet.

Sad, but true.

4. Nonsense...there are more folks who are tolerant than intolerant, though the intolerant are armed.

7. intolerant people with guns scare me. nt

8. True, that, but to live in fear is worse.

3. CNN sure as hell seems to know the answer. The level of Jeff Zucker ordered Fox-like propaganda spewing forth is near criminal.

5. I only distrust people when they give me a reason to.

Fuck labels.
