we should not succumb to that fear and allow it to consume us.

we'll see others around us succumbing to theirs. i think we should stand strong. b/c allowing that fear to result in unreasonable suspicion of Arab Muslims won't keep us safe. it will just feed mistreatment of Muslims. which could actually result in us being less safe as the mistreatment could rile up and radicalize folks all over the world and right here in the USA. and those radicalized folks might take action against us.

beat that shit back. don't give in to it.
