Heartwarming: Soldier defends Muslim storekeeper against racism

A hidden camera crew set up shop in a deli in upstate New York and staged an anti-Muslim situation where a white man comes into the deli and says anti-Muslim things to the person working behind the counter.

Most people ignored the racism (or tried to pretend they weren't hearing it). But one soldier in uniform stood up for the deli owner, telling the person to "get out" and "You have the choice to shop anywhere, just like he has a choice to practice his religion anywhere," and adding, "That's the reason I wear the uniform. So anyone can live free in this country." (Watch the full video here.)

High five, man. We need more people like this guy.
