That was kind of my point, smart alec remark to the way Americans treat the Arabic population now after Sept. 11th, everyone suspects them. There's also been alot of senseless crime against Arab-Americans, and Muslims as well. I was jus' pointing out the ignorance that most Americans have towards things like this. Which is why we have such a huge issue with racism in our country. White people look at the media and w/o any direct exposure to minorities or any other group of people that is being negatively stereotyped, they assume that music videos, myths and stereotypes lead to intolerance to different cultures. I've heard of other people from other countries telling me about how alot of the people that they live around (neighboring countries, esp. European) that think that ironically while America is the melting pot, its also the most close minded country due to such ignorance. Ack, OK i'll shut up now n' quit ranting
