Oh but you do hear about them! But much of the popular media of this country choose to ignore them. It's not newsworthy. And then they come out asking why no Muslims denounce the extremists. They do denounce them - all the frickin time. Makes me so mad!
It's true and thanks to you and Ausgirl for bringing reason to this issue. A bit of research shows how many Muslim leaders and everyday Muslims (MILLIONS) denounce and march and protest horrors like this. But that does not get widely reported. This stuff does and even though I personally know several Muslims who are simply normal, cool people, it has been very hard for me not to become prejudiced. IMO, when immigrants march against the countries they inhabit and scream death to the police or whatever, and, perhaps due to my prejudice, even just populations who wear the Niqab, are total extremists and I worry terribly about them being in and allowed to remain in western nations they seem to hate and/or not respect.
I admit that I have become biased.
