If you really want to scare yourself picture this: a congregation of Muslims. Before you go calling me a stereotyping racist, answer this: what image came to your mind? I’ll be more than willing to bet that it was an image of a violent Muslim protest or a group of al Qaeda soldiers with automatic rifles. How can this be? Simple, it’s all we see. Everyday major news networks flood our living rooms with disturbing visual images of the Arab world. Day in and day out newspapers print images that conjure up fear and hatred of these people within us. Today’s media has single handedly caused Americans to fear and hate nearly a quarter of the world population and that my friends, is scary.
