[quote]As the investigation into who was behind the Boston bombings goes on, Muslim communities are braced for a backlash should the perpetrator share their faith.
The day after the Boston Marathon bombings, Yusef was treated differently.
The 10-year-old went to his Ohio-area school and was surprised by a question from a classmate, according to his family. While the class was discussing the explosions, the classmate is said to have asked: "Does that mean Yusef is going to blow up the school?"
"We're all on the edge of our seats praying that the person who did these acts isn't a Muslim. We're tired of being blamed for the actions of one person."

It's a sentiment shared by many, especially among Arab, African, Asian and Sikh Americans.[/quote]
Thoughts? I think it's unfair to brand a whole group on the actions of a few
