The hatred against people who even look like Muslims has already started. I found a friend of mine in the USA saying the other day that she'd seen a group of Muslim women in her store and wished that they'd 'just go home' and 'what use are they to anyone' because 'they don't contribute anything at all.'.
I told her she scared me and to please not speak like that again, at least not to me. Not every Muslim is a terrorist, as indeed not every white person is a Christian kind of thing. I had enough racism growing up, I didn't need to hear it from the mouth of a friend.
