Hi,
How do people react to those who are muslims nowdays, especially in United states? Once people use to admire that women in Islam cover their head and body parts. Now it seems that some people are taking advantage and making fun of it. Those who are muslims, how does that feel? how can you deal with such a drastic change in people's perspective, and the way those people think. So you are welcome to share your own opinions...

People don't make fun of it in a racist way. What americans take issue with is the forcing of wearing it and other problems with the threatment of women and the removal of free choice in religion/daily life that is happening in other places in the world.
There are millions and millions of Muslims living in America and there really isn't a problem. People may feel scared flying on a plane with them, but they aren't attacked or given any more racism than any group in the country.
