but you can still call them out for it and try to solve that overgeneralization problem.
can you blame white guys in Chicago for being scared of black people because most crimes in Chicago are committed by blacks, and most gang members are black people? Yes.
I can understand why people would be scared of Muslims, but it doesn't make it okay or right. They can be blamed for it and called out on it.

Lol have a stroll around the downtown area of Chicago and tell me how safe you feel.
But its all your fault, obviously because of the over-generalization caused by the very reasons that you stated. This **** doesn't even make any sense but that's how you said it.
You think these generalizations would even exist to begin with if there wasn't some truth to it?
Also this is a terrible example considering the area has a lot to do with how people are. Try comparing the average Muslim raised in the US compared to the average Muslim raised in Indonesia. Muslims in the US are definitely more progressive while a good chunk of Muslims in Indonesia actually support radical Islam.
So in this case, I think fear of Muslims living in the US is pretty unjustified while being afraid of Muslims in more radical environments is pretty justified.
But hey, in the end its all my fault for living in a world where the actions have further consequences beyond their immediate effect.
