Yes this can be surprise when someone says this. My friend came to states to study , work, enjoy, have a good life.But receant terroist activities have forced ppl to think. I am simple thug came here for a good life and I dont have anything to do with those activities but you are from the same country where that county has been used as a base. Its not my fault , i dont have to do anything with that.If someone use that terms to rip benefits, haress, [Disallowed String for - bad word] with all those ppl, when all those ppl from that country start haressing then I guess ur terms with them  will be sour in the future
