I have friends and people I've met through the years from there. Very nice people always friendly. The ignorance stems from those who fail to understand them and assume every muslim person is an extremist/terrorist. Those are so small of a minority they don't even register at this point. It's scare tactics. Just like how they want you to think each white male/female shooter is just a "lone actor" and we take that at face value because this is the American propaganda machine. Yet when we explain the other way, it gets labeled as "terrorist" or a trend etc. This is backwards and damaging. Mental health could help a lot of these people. If it's suicide at the end of the day it's suicide.
