Instead, he chose to "descriminate against a birthplace or origin" by specifically complaining about foreigner's driving habits.
Point taken.

Just dress him up in a burka and have him walk to the mall and back for a week. His new found appreciation for ignorance and intolerance would hopefully do him good... gosh he might even learn some compassion and understanding.

What if he is from a different planet? Do you call NASA? Maybe that will motivate them to build a star ship.
