The "right" to make some sort of petty point.
"Aha those Muslims again!", absolutely no different to the "white people cant be racist" rhetoric. It's "outrage and incredulity" and the expense of real progress.

Most of the culture is dictated by the religion.
I don't see where colour comes into it, again you are confusing religion with race which you always do in any discussion where this particular faith is mentioned. Of course non muslims can be abusive. However we are talking about this case and there have been a number of these large rings now involving Asian men. It is not racist to say that some of the problem may be about unhealthy attitudes to women based on belief.
