At school, I get alot of comments of people saying to that I blow things up and I'm a terroist.
Here are some more used comments that I hear.
"Are you ging to blow up my house?"
"So, you going to drive a plane in my house now?"
"Wheres your turban?"
"MUSLIM!"
Just because of what happend on 9/11. People see us kind of people as terroists and bombers.

People will always find something to pick on someone else for. It's best just to ignore them, because, who really gives a shit? You don't need to associate with people who do nothing but insult you and you don't need to let what they say get to you. Forget them.
And yeah shit like this happens a lot. I know German people here get LOADS of stick. However, there might be a difference between a couple of terrorist attacks and starting the only two world wars. -

If they ask those questions again, just say "Yes I will you motherfu..." That's just some stereotype shit. I got a Muslim friend and he told me you guys get to have 4 wives. Then you will never ever cheat on them because you got so many wives why would you still cheat? And you have to treat them equally too, duh. If they do shits even worse, make them pay by sending people to kill these bitch heads. Racism must be stop. Except for African versus White.

I didn't think you looked like a Muslim.
A girl at my school used to get similar comments said to her in one of my classes, just ignore them. They're obviously retarded if they think just because some is or looks Muslim then they're a terrorist. Terrorists are usually either radical religious groups or very poor people that want money. -

thats bullshit. Muslim people are heaps nice. i think its wrong to label someone for their religion. i have few Muslim guys in my school and they are one of the nicest people i know.
but i guess its kind of the same for Christians and Jews. weren't they hated in like the Roman Age? -

Is is that bad in Albania? I had no idea. I work at a retail store here as a Customer Service associate.
About 2 months ago I overheard this woman talking to someone and she said:
"Watch out, these Islamics are growing - soon they'll own Canada."
I was disturbed by it.
I am not a Muslim - mind you, I was born a Muslim - I know quite a bit about the people and the religion and I have great respect for it. I felt offended because bigots like that ruin and tarnish anything, not just Islam - I felt offended because my parents are devout Muslims. No where, once in the Qu~ran does it say that violence is permissible.
All these terrorist groups and extremist-militants who get gratifications by fear-mongering - it's really disgusting.
Dritan, there have always been bigot, slime fucks in the world - if it's not one group they're blaming - it's another. Because it's easier to do that, then to sit down and think for a second or do some research about the group they're blaming.
Remember the Martin Luther King days? Everyone blamed the Blacks for something or the other, segregation was so horrid that Blacks were hung in public places with pomp and splendour. It's really quite disgusting. Most recently, it has been Muslims to get the shit end of the stick.
Remember Dritan - you're on the shit end, but you know the truth. Be patient and calm, it'll blow over - because it generally always does.
Soon enough, some moron, somewhere will do something stupid and then everyone who so much looks like the culprit will get pissed on.
Patience Dritan, Patience. -
