When were you last linked to a Muslim group?

I, being swarthy skinned, have been called “black”, Mexican-American, Tex-Mex, Hindi but, so far, not Muslim. It used to irk me when my checks were refused until a “white” person could back my license.

When I saw the picture of that people-killer in Seattle I thought he would be mistaken for Hispanic only because swarthy skinned people often “look” the same to white people. Having lived in the NW USA, I know good and well how the biases flow.

Actually I have seen many very beautiful Hispanic and Syrian/Iraqui/Iranian, etc., peoples and they look very similar. If I had not been just swarthy with an “odd” nose, maybe I would have been beautiful too.

“When I saw the picture of that people-killer in Seattle...”

What people-killer would that be? (65 miles and two counties away from Seattle)
