I lived out there and the anti Arab sentiment was strong after 9/11. Granted I was in middle school, but still, it wasn't all coming from people my age. Most kids repeat what their parents say. I recall "turning Iraq into a giant parking lot" being a popular saying.

I appreciate your sentiment on the subject. I went through something similar post WWIi. Kids in my grade school brought to school sentiments they heard from their parents denibrating Jews, Japs, Krauts, Waps and others I won't even try to mention. It was ugly and none of those racial types settled in our small town. Absolutely none. It wasn't until I was about 12 before I began 'till I began to change.
