Re: Fear of backlash..
Dude, get off it… the answer is quite clearly YES. Read the papers. Taking things further than your example–there have been several cases in Germany where Turks (and other Muslims, I remember one with a Moroccan) attack the American soldiers stationed there when they find them in town.. just for being American.
We can do this all day. Everyone has their ****heads. But that still doesn’t turn your rambling into a coherent point.
