Why are we prejudiced against middle-eastern men???? |
|
I have an online friend who is a bushbot and she has married a Muslim from Morocco He is in the states looking for work, and she claims that he is having a hard time, even though places are hiring. She just doesn't understand why he is facing so much prejudice every where they go. I need a direct quote from * stating how everyone in the US needs to be afraid, very afraid of all middle-eastern men. I think I can turn her around with a little push.

1. Who's "We" I'm not. Personally I ask why are Americans prejudiced against |
|
anyone who is not a Christian?
Never fails everytime I admit that I am not a Christian I get at least a half dozen or so outraged stares.

2. Interesting....I ended a long term relationship |
|
with a Moroccan within the past year. I also used to hire (as temps) arab men, and supervised their work progress (during and immediately after nine eleven). There are many many more issues at play as to why this man cannot find steady work. I know of quite a few who have moved to the gulf coast post hurricane Katrina, and are finding work pretty easily. To finding a quote from the shrub on fearing middle eastern men....shouldn't be that hard. I'm looking for ashcroft quotes now-will post when I find them.
