Miss America 2014 was crowned in Atlantic City last night. And the winner is - Miss New York, Nina Davuluri. Nina is 24 years old, born in Syracuse and a practicing Hindu. Why do I add that she is practicing Hindu? Because twitter went crazy afterwards with some lest that accepting comments.

 

One Twitter user, DallasRobinson8, wrote: “I am literally soo mad right now a ARAB won. #MissAmerica”

 

Jakeamick5 added: “How the **** does a foreigner win miss America? She is a Arab! #idiots”

 

Emi_adkins said: “It’s called Miss America. Get outta here New York you look like a terrorist. #bye #americanforamerica”

 

And another user said: “Well they just picked a Muslim for Miss America. That must’ve made Obama happy. Maybe he had a vote.”

 

 

Perhaps we as a civilization aren't as evolved as we would like to think we are.
