I understand how what I said might offend you, but I clearly said It was more related to poverty and tourism than
Islam and that my experience of Fez was completely different, so I wasn't generalizing about Muslims or Morrocans. But I stand by what I said: Marrakech, particularly the Medina is occupied by scam artists, thieves, thugs, and scum of every stripe. Perhaps this is based on an unusual and unrepresentative experience, but after six weeks of being harassed, conned, and abused I'm unlikely to return to find out different. Your contention that they treat everyone this way, regardless
Of race, religion, or nationality, isn't comforting. |

No you didn't.

And that is fine with me, it's a tourist city and you would find similar cities around the world. I personally tend to avoid Marrakesh and Casablanca.

I still don't think you understood what I was saying. You are generalizing and tend to jump to conclusions quickly. I said scammers generally don't care about your religion, they only care about the money. Which happens surprise suprise everywhere in the world.
