Honestly, I don't know any of these people.
Is it too late to move out of the country? Perhaps to Antarctica - there's scientists there, and penguins, they'll take me in, right?

It doesn't help my determination NOT to view Muslims or people of middle-eastern heritage as anything but terrorists. but I STILL disagree with the profiling. People can be nice, and people can be real jerks. Some are peaceful while some are driven to terrorize others.
EVERYONE is capable of being a terrorist. Being Muslim or from the middle east doesn't change those odds very much! At least I don't think they do. Right now, there are SO many people in the USA who are very militant about their hatred of anyone who they perceive as foreign. THAT is the budding of internal terrorism, and I doubt they would want to admit to it.
