I have Apps, Arabs, & AraApps. I have found that most people who buy into the stereotype of Apps & Arabs being: stubborn, crazy, stupid, hard to work with, etc, etc... are generally either ignorant (they don't know any better) or tend to bully rather than train with respect, & find that most Apps & Arabs don't tolerate being bullied so the horse is blamed rather than the human who is responsible.
