Oly crap, that was awesome!
He talks about how he and Daivari were labeled as terrorists by a guy who's never met them. He pointed out how the NY Post writer wrote "Arabs in ski masks" did it... even tho if they wore ski masks, how could anyone know they were Arabs? He talks about how he's an Arab AMERICAN and yet he's persecuted simply because of his race.
Everyone's ancestors are immigrants and came to America and fought for people's freedoms. But Hassan notes that everytime something happens, Arabs are blamed. Plane crash? Arabs. A bomb? Arabs. Blackout two summers ago? Arabs. Hurricane Dennis? Arabs.
Crowd chants USA, and Hassan says that they can say what they want, but his name is Muhammad Hassan. He is an Arab American. But today, he is ashamed to be an American. It cuts off there.
But that was an awesome promo and basically killed any fears I had that they'd turn his character into a hypocrite. He brings up a lot of great points, and the crowd boos him like idiots.
There was even a sign that said "Get the hell out of America Hassan."
Funny stuff, but definitely watch this promo. Hell, if anything, it's a perfect example of how to conduct a promo.
