Because of people who do not make an effort to fit in and have a hard time integrating, complain and whine incessantly and try to polarize the society we all suffer. It cant be so bad here ass she choses to make this her home and enjoy the privileges, benefits and freedoms that this society offers. From optics point of view if the society only hears complains, whining and hostilities they lend relevance to the bigots arguments that we as a general group hate the society and shouldn’t be here. There are scores of other minority groups like Chinese and Filipinos and they don’t seem to be invoking controversies on regular basis.

And we have a right to complain only if we are as tolerant or even more tolerant. Would her parents accept if she decided to marry a African American.

What an intelligent argument! What has her personal life, personal choice got to do with justifying discrimination at professional work place? Why do you care who she decides to marry or what her mother says? Really, please explain me the logic. You are being extremely insensitive to the victims of racial discrimination and acting like an apologist for racists. You could just condemn wrong practice in plain simple words and move on, but no it needs to be justified because it is happening in big great America.

As with Muslims not integrating, so just because some Muslim women decide to wear Hijab, they are not integrating into the society forget about the fact they are doctors and professionals and making tangible positive contributions to the society? Whatever happening the idea of respecting personal choices? Would Muslims become better citizens if they start wearing mini skirts?

So I guess you probably not a tolerant person so I am assuming according to your logic it makes it okay for you and your children to be racially attacked and discriminated at daily basis. That’s fine but I guess for normal folks who are tolerant and professional, they deserve to be treated with some respect no matter where they are and who they are.
