You know, just because the majority of you only think "Oh, from the Middle East" doesn't mean that everyone does. I have a few friends that would automatically think of 9/11.
Like she said, FIRST IMPRESSION. People who revert to Osama Bin Laden or Saddam probably can't help it. Seeing a Mulism may jog the memory of having Muslim attacks on the US, not too long ago. It's not necessarily prejudice, but it's not right, either. |

I'll admit I did think of terrorist, but I mean, who wouldn't? At least I'm honest, but when I thought about it, I thought that it was pretty unfair to assume something like that. Not to mention racist. It just doesn't make sense.
So now I think, someone who's faithful to their religion and culture? |
