Ignorance

Quote:
I was enraged when some caucasian woman said on camera: "My family has been here for 7 generations...they [arab americans] should not be here, they should go back to where they came from!" Can I SMACK this lady? PLEASE do NOT tell me that this woman is a product of higher education.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time that someone has used a statement like this ~ in reference to Americans , and it probably won't be the last. This lady has probably made many other uninformed assumptions, but the emotionalism of the situation allowed what she was really feeling to come out.

Ignorance is bliss.
