Look around the world at the number of various conflicts that have happened over the last ten years and related spin-offs of small scale violence involving bombings and shootings, the latest in Quebec, and the common denominator is the religion of Islam. For a religion that is commonly portrayed as a religion of peace, it attracts the exact opposite by its supporters and detractors alike. The travel ban is simply a knee jerk reaction after decades of violence connected to this faith. There just doesn't seem to be a way back from where we are in our fear of the radicals involved with Islam. When people feel threatened as they do specifically in Europe, there is no easy way to erase that fear. Canada has now had a despicable reaction to peacefull Muslims practicing their faith, which sadly has shown that we are not immune to the global fear of those who practice a specific religion.
