I think you guys got to be careful here...
I am muslim and proud to be one, the last time I checked I was not a terrorist and don't intend on becoming one. There are about 1.8 billion Muslim in the world today and you cannot take the action of a few hundred to categorize the vast majority, come on we're smarter than that!!! just in the US alone there anywhere between 7 and 10 million muslims. This stereotype would be the same thing than calling any Christian Racist b/c the KKK would use cross and as their emblem to commit hate crime. The same goes for any extremist group that has committed crime and using religion as a justification.
The vast majority of muslim are "Normal people" who just want to live peacefully. Stereotyping and Intolerance are to 2 of the most dangerous traits for any human to have. So BBoi be racist all you want, you might as well start with me.

unfortunately the ones that do believe it count the ones that dont outsiders thereby almost forcing the ones that dont into it. its like you're either with us or against theres no middle ground and the fact that they agree to rather be in than out is the problem.

you can't tar everyone with the same brush.

It seems to me that most religous groups have their radicals.

However I've got to say that radical muslims seem to take it all a step further.

i mean no disrespect but its not quite a few hundred, its a bit more than that, its a few hundred that have been caught. and no you are not a terrorist but guess what those assholes on 9/11 who lived in florida and had families were'nt your every day terrorirst either. i'm all for giving people the benefit of the doubt and being proved wrong unfortunately these assholes make it very difficult because the benefit of the doubt can cost us our lives.
