Are there a lot of Muslims on Y!A?
I’ve always wanted to get a good chance to talk to a Muslim American and ask them a million questions.
Like is it hard being a Muslim in America?
Are people as half as shameless about their bigotry in the real world as they are online toward you?
What is good about America for Muslims to live in it?
What did you feel when you watch the Twin Towers fall?
What do you feel about groups like Al Qaida? Do you want to see them hunted down or reformed?
The only experience I think I ever had with Muslims was when a hurricane knocked out the utilities a Muslim temple came by and provided hot meals, hot showers, baby supplies, light repairs to homes to prevent further damage, and help clear debris from the road…

i dont know how many muslim in ya. just want to let you know, im muslim. im not live in america, i think most people came to america coz its prosperity. yes i shock when see the wtc collapsed, thats not like anything we could see in normal everyday life. i dont feel any connection with wtc, i even dont kno that that was important building, i think most people never heard of it before the event. once again, in alqaida, coz i live far away from them too..doesnt feel any connection to them. but i think i know why alqaida raise.

Its not hard being a muslim in america, unless youre sensitive to people commentng or staring sometimes not often.
People are scared of you in real person sometimes. Online theyre not.
I wasnt muslim when it happened i was atheist and i didnt care cuz i was like 12 and i dont know anyone who died.
I hate al Qaeda i think they should be arrested.
Muslims dont go to temple btw we go to a mosque.
Im glad you had a positive experience with muslims.

Christians do things like this all the time, both at home and abroad.
They’re not guilty of never doing these things, just because you don’t see it.
Of course, if you ever saw Christians doing these things, you’d probably complain that they were doing it out of some ulterior motive, like trying to evangelize people or something.
The only experience I’ve ever had with Muslims is when I see buildings, cars, marketplaces, and airplanes in flames on the news. And when I see someone having his head cut off on an Internet video.
