There's no real way of sugar coating it. I'm glad you wouldn't personally harm a Muslim, but Islamophobia feeds those who would. Please stop categorizing me; that is a personal attack. 'Phobic' suggests an unreasonable or unwarranted fear of something. I guarantee you I don't fear any muslim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Situations such as the recent shooting of the Indian engineer in the USA.. can cause concern outside the USA.. and affect perceptions about the USA.. If the killings continue.. it might cause even Christians to be concerned about sending their children to study in the USA .. if their children have brown colour skin tones.. because of the possibility that their children might be mistaken for muslims and face harassment or possibly even danger in the USA. So yes this is something that does not just affect muslims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You, Morning Glory, are part of the reason Muslims feel unwelcome and unsafe in America. "They are not a desirable addition to society?" Really? Who are you to set yourself up as the judge of all Jewish people and Muslims? There are Jews who should not be let into the US, and there are Muslims who would be incredible additions to our society. I've had some of them as professors and classmates, and I'd love to see the US continue to welcome talented people from the same religion that brought us (or contributed to) our numeric system, algebra, trigonometry, astronomy, ect ect. Just so you know, this doesn't just affect Muslims. Christian Arabs have been murdered by xenophobic idiots who thought they were attacking Muslims. Sikhs have suffered similarly. Innocent Muslims being murdered is just as horrible, but they're not the only ones affected by Islamophobia.

I wonder what the percentages are of people who are afraid of Muslims in their area? Muslims should be fired up and openly protesting against Muslim terrorism for all the bad image Muslim terrorists give the faith that compels them toward acts of terror. Sorry but this is false. http://www.snopes.com/dearborn-michigan-pro-isis-rally/ http://www.factcheck.org/2015/12/dearborns-anti-isis-rally/ I'm not for a false religion or anything that comes out of it, but we have to really do some research to keep away from giving the MSM the ammo to shoot us with.
