How not to evangelize!!!

While out & about in downtown Calgary, I came across a fellow who was wearing a sandwich board that said, "All Canadians need to be re-educated in Russia?"  I smiled and took his literature, and this is what it said,

"Canadians are mentally retarded creeps and bums."    



Not the best way to win friends and influence people.  I asked him if this was effective, and he said yes.  I asked him if he needed to be re-educated in Russia, and he said no.  I tried to engage him in conversation, but he just kept answering "Yes", even to questions that were not "yes/ no" questions.

At any rate, whatever his message, I'm not sure that this is the most effective way of getting people to listen to you.
