Hmm, and I searched for Toto songs too before i sifted this. That vid never came up. *discard

Ted Fucking Nugent.

If there is a Heaven, St. Peter is going to quiz me good for that numb skull. Almost all of the music I listened to in high school makes me cringe today.

REO Speedwagon. Journey. 38 Special. Toto.

I have sinned!

What's really plain to see that I couldn't see back then is that big-label music is mostly about the packaging and not the content.

The only Bobo & Toto I could find on the supported video sharing networks. Wanted to sift this one..the episode when they first meet:

..featuring a nice Chinese pop song

Toto... I don't think we're in Kansas anymore...

I guess Toto also sucks for pulling back the curtain on the Wizard of Oz. You know, the Wizard, right? He's that guy who tricked everyone around him into believing he was something better than a just a inutile troll mortal man.

Seems you have to beg for good music to be sifted nowadays. My ToTo song is on it's second visit here in the beggars canyon.

To clarify, the individuals subject to scrutiny were placed into an completely artificial environment where the desired outcome of their behaviour was decidedly engineered. I have no doubt that the clerk actively incited participation from bystanders.
^ of course he did, however...I would point out that the customers' reactions were not necessarily engineered. For example, I don't care how artificial of an environment I am in, I will still act like myself.

Compare this to an Asch paradigm where the control doesn't exist and the ratio matches up perfectly.

To claim that this is "How Muslims Are Treated In [sic] USA" is patently ludicrous. The only fair assessment would be a hidden camera tracking a hijab-clad woman going about daily tasks.
^ I don't think anyone here claimed this was an awesome scientific/social experiment. Entertaining demonstration/exhibition of various reactions to the "elephant in the room" is what is inherent.
It seems that the fact that all we saw was a well-rehearsed performance by professional actors went over everyone's head. If there's one thing people can't get enough of it's righteous indignation.

^again, I will say that the customers do not appear to be actors, and I don't think that anyone here missed the fact that the woman and the clerk WERE actors. Your suggestion that a fair assesment would be a hidden camera tracking a hijab-clad woman going about daily tasks is excellent should anyone wish to follow through with a scientific experiment. I believe for some reason that this was never meant to be passed off as such, and rather more of what I stated above.


The customers were indeed subjects, and social behaviour is indeed defined by one's company.

My offense is that this is certainly not an accurate depiction of "How Muslims Are Treated In The USA" (by the way, thank you for editing the title Farhad2000).

Muslims are free to practicce their faith, minarets dot the landscapes of Washington and many American cities, laws were enacted prohibiting discriminatory practices and Muslims currently enjoy a priviledged status regarding their religion in the public space.

Farhad2000, that debate is entirely unrelated to the video posting and its reticulum is far too wide for superficial rebuttal... I'm not sure it's proper to broach such complex matter considering the raison d'etre of this video posting. Suffice to say that if you are suggesting Islam is devoid of militarism you either ill-informed, oblivious or a seasoned Taqqiya expert.

In my esteem, any religion that encompasses a penal code (jurisprudence), financial regulations, actively censures opposition, legiferates all spheres of life (public and private) must be judged in toto as a political entity as well as a faith. As such, the drive of maintaining a parallel political system for a certain strata of society is indeed indicative of a "threat" to many Western nations.

sorry, but it's a dupe.

I cannot BELIEVE Africa didn't sift on the first go. *lame

In reply to this comment by Abducted:
*beg This classic has to be on the sift!

Nice, but wouldn't a song by Toto have been more appropriate?

"I bless the rainnnnnssss down in Topeka."

Ant's right. Where's the cow-tipping? Dorothy and Toto? Auntie Em?
