Well, that fear was more than manipulated to get us into Iraq.
A little fear can be good as it brings caution. A lot of fear is bad as it clouds judgement. When you're afraid you don't think, you react.
For instance, a lot of fear of young Muslim men would lead someone like you to ignore the foundations of Liberty and strip someone of
their civil rights because
you are afraid.
That just doesn't seem right now does it?
As an aside, I'm not black or white on all profiling...but it's a slippery slope.
