Ask him anything: This Muslim Marine wants to bust myths about his faith

BALTIMORE, Md. — Most people stop when they see Mansoor Shams on the street nowadays.

“It’s very hard to predict what someone is going to ask,” Shams said recently, as he stood with his sign in downtown Baltimore near the Inner Harbor. Being open to questions from strangers is “not the easiest thing in the world to do. There are times you feel like a target.”
