quite the contrary

Yes, I understand that this is a public forum, and everyone is most certainly entitled to their opinions. But just as there are muslims who commit these horrible crimes,there are many who are so humiliated, like my husband, for what their people are doing. I guess how the saying goes, One bad apple spoils the whole bunch. It is true for every religion and race. For example, in south florida there are gangs of black children, starting at age 10. I don't blame the race, I blame the parents. Unfortunately, not everyone thinks clearly and they all assume that because a small group of arab muslims are terrible the whole race must be like that. I am so frustrated with people making assumptions about them. My husband did not kill anyone, so why does he get crucified for it?
