I live in the US, but I lived in Canada near Vancouver for two years, and I think Canadians are more open minded than Americans when in comes to differences in race, culture, religion, etc. I would still be living there, but it was just to far away from my grown children, mother and other relatives.

I am not Pakistani but I am a Muslim, and where ever you go in the Muslim world you would find nice people full of hospitality. If you respect me I will respect you, if you be nice to me I will be nice to you, if you hate me I will not hate you because then I am doing exactly what you are doing to me and that is wrong and haram. I cannot say I will not be your friend because you are not Muslim that is haram. If you go to many Muslim countries you will be treated very nicely. Don't let many things give you the wrong idea of Muslims today, its just that when something happen to our Muslim brothers and sisters in other nations and its because of the US or Israel we just tend to get angry, very normal indeed.

We cannot judge everyone in the world the same, your 5 fingers are not the same so why think everyone is the same.

Just curious

I am agree with destinee, abdali, ajee, adnan ahmad, Diablo666’s comments. there are many americans living in Pakistan, some stayed there for buisiness, some got merriage there, some american went pakistan to learn music of pakistan.

Dear Bsmc
not all Pakistanis complain about being treated badly. i am pakistani muslim living in united states... and so far everybody has been friendly and nice. Americans are nice people and they are more tolerant than others.

I am not sure how would you be treated in Pakistan it depends where you go.

yeaha Chris you are right.... good and bad is everywhere. But if you are with a family memeber (for example you future husband or a close friend) than you will be shelterd and treated nicely by their families.
