Well, gotta disagree a tad with you Rob..
1) It did happen. It was covered by a local news station. The gas station owner and manager apologised publicly. You can watch the apology here:

2) Although I tend to agree with you that the guy that shot the video was an a$$hole, as a Viet vet I can understand his anger, since similar things happened to me upon my return from Vietnam. It's easy to get caught up in the fervor of the moment.
3) I think that what Lathehand was trying to express is his mistrust of our present president, a person that is an avowed Christian and yet has publically stated that, to him, the "most beautiful sound in the world" is the morning call to prayer in the Muslem faith. However, I completely agree with you that it should not have any bearing on the gas station incident.
