That's never been the way it's been presented here, and you know it full well. Islam has been presented as Muslims are inherently violent, all of them (even the "tame" ones, and yes I know Scuds wrote that and not you), and this bastardized, half-azzed "understanding of Islam" that's been presented on this board somehow "proves it", and it's only a matter of time until all of Islam rises up.

Nobody is discussing Al Quaeda here. Nobody has started out the multiple conversations about Muslims (same ones over the past couple of years) with, "Oh, let's examine how an evil small terrorist subsect is subverting an entire religion". They are discussing "Muslims". The threat of an entire religion against this country. That is the starting point, not a conclusion drawn by any intelligent examination.

Absurd. Bigoted. Racist. Fear-mongering. Nonsensical.
