"Finally--if I can engage in a little comparison of horror--unless I'm mistaken none of the acts cited in the EU during the observation period resulted in death. But I believe that since 9/11 there've been a number of anti-Muslim hate crimes in the US that have not only resulted in the torching of businesses as seen in the EU, but even a couple deaths. Even of people who are not Muslims or Arabs, but simply because they had brown skin; I recall one Sikh who was lynched for his perceived "Arabness."
