My Muslim neighbor and I were talking about this last night. He told me he hopes he is not paranoid but he is noticing that he gets a lot more menacing looks from idiots.This is what happens when blind bigotry starts to run amok.
These three kids pay the price for the crimes of ISIS and died at the hands of America's best known homegrown product: the bigoted white redneck with a gun.

"""Police haven't said what may have compelled the accused, Craig Stephen Hicks, to allegedly carry out the attack Tuesday evening. He turned himself in to police later in the night.
But given the victims' religion and comments the alleged shooter apparently left on a Facebook page, many social media users wondered what role, if any, the victims' faith played.
The victims were Muslims: Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23; Yusor Mohammad, 21; and Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19.""""
This and similar incidents are what comes from the anti-arab/Muslim propaganda from US media since 9/11. Arabs, Muslims, and anyone not Christian is a threat. For most of us, being calm rational well-adjusted human beings we understand this isn't true and aren't so close to snapping simple repetition will push us over the line, but for some, it's enough. See someone in hijab or with a beard and you go off from the slightest provcation.
I've yet to have a bad experience with Muslims, Mennonites, general Christians, or anyone else. While I'm not fond of religions proper, I have no issues with individuals.
