Pat... You talk about your non-Muslims but what about all the mistreatment of Muslims all around the world?
Do you know how Muslims were treated in Serbia and Bosnia? You might not know but so many innocent Muslims were targeted in the UK after the 9/11 attack - what have they to do with anything?

In Britian we are treated like 2nd class citizen's. Every religion in the UK has a form of legislation which protects them - but what about the Islamic religion - why don't we have a law protecting us?

Now, in Britian anyone who is suspected (even if they haven't done anything) are imprisoned. Do you know how many Muslims have been ordered into jail without trial - thousands. Is that fair? If we observe are religious celebrations or practises - why are we accused of terrorism?

Ok, so christians have been treated badly in Islamic countries - don't you think all Muslims are appalled by these Islamic countries? Of course we care - no matter what religion - their still people who are being treated badly.

Innocent Muslims are targeted as a result of a particular individual or group (is that representative of the entire community) - we are accused of being terrorists - even though the majority are innocent. Its like the IRA because of their attacks many people think the Irish are terrorist as well - is that the case?

You can't just talk about your non-Muslims - think about those who aren't as well. Stop accusing innocent Muslims and target the governments or individuals responsible - not the entire Muslim community - we have nothing to do with it.
