Re: US Muslims More Tolerant, Opposed to Violence Than Other Faiths

This from a guy who doesnt even live in the US. So you are saying that in reality, Muslims in the US are intolerant, and are FOR violence?!?!

Let me clue you in… Muslims in the US dont feel as though they are under siege. We still gather in our mosques. We still walk the street with comfort. Today I saw Muslim everywhere, not one of them looked the least bit anxious, or oppressed. There is more anxiety in our Pakistan, with Millions of people who feel under siege there, then any Muslim in the US. Just ask anyone in Pakistan how they feel about going to the market when suicide bombers are ready to strike any second. Ask the people of Karachi if they dont feel as if their under siege, or the people in KP, or in Baluchistan.

You almost sound disappointed that we dont share your intolerance and penchant for violence. Considering the sheer brilliance of that statement, its amazing you have managed to survive this long in Afghanistan without shooting yourself in the foot.

Seriously you are by far one of the dumbest posters on GS. I was saying the survey did not get the relevant information as people would not respond honestly due to social pressure. And hey if the ACLU says Muslims in the US have faced a spike in discrimination who should I believe you or them? No obviously some fat kid using his mom’s computer is the authentic source of political discourse.
