He speaks the truth, whoever he is.

I hate the way its written. Switch it up a bit lad.

I guess this video is one of the many reasons not to group all Muslims in to one. Certain political affiliations still like to do that, and hopefully a few will see this vid and realise theyve been dumb all along.

Are you finally admitting to that.

Admitting that right wing politics that show anomosity towards specific groups to gain a following from the weak and frustrated exist? There was never a doubt in my mind. Happens all over the world with different target groups.
Some people would even go as far to suggest that this man is in the minority, just because they're so blinded in hatred. Its a shame, but we need to learn to live with it and hope the education system gets a bit better in the generations to come.

He talks of having to refuse to marry underage girls, being bribed not to speak out, being against genital mutilation, amongst other things, today in Australia. This suggests,like here, these practices are still common place in more than a tiny minority of people.

The best form of education would be for Muslims living in the West to integrate, speak out against those that don't and abandon the wearing of prehistoric garments that represent female subjugation. That would go a long way to create a more harmonious existence for all. I won't hold my breath though.

Lets not act as if the average ultright-winger wouldnt lump this bloke with this group if they saw him on the street. This is the issue, people blindly categorising others based on preconceptions. If a person chooses to preconceive, and live their life hating others because they presume 'more than a tiny minority' want these laws in place then they're the problem. They live a life of hatred, and these people are more evil than the average Muslim.

There are evil non-religious people too, can you imagine what the IQ of a person that believes all non-religious people must be evil based on this fact must be. Thats a great leap of logic, and their opinion of non-religious people was probably swayed by an equally evil person of power that also lives a life of hatred.

Its only the extreme groups that think like this, most Muslims have no interest in underage girls, genital mutilation and other things mentioned in the video.

Your understanding of Islam is roughly equal to that of someone who’d equate the KKK to Christianity. I apologise if that appears rude, but from the looks of things you appear to care passionately about a subject, whilst you fail to fully understand.

Deport extremists and take me instead?

might do a poem on this dude - and if he calls me fake - he will be right

I thought after the Westminster attack, the Muslim community seems so much more animated than I'd seen them generally. They seemed immediately to be speaking out against these people who defile their own religion. I think that's what happens... things progress, communities speak out more freely, people realise more widely that all Muslims are not the same... and there's a bit more of a coming together. No one thinks all Muslims are terrorists apart from a few ultra-right wing lunatics. There's a lot of work being done in mosques and by the wider Muslim communities to counter radicalisation, I'd like to see that go further, encompassing Women's rights, for example.

I agree with all that. Regarding the BIB, I have to agree. I'm not one to tell people what they can and cannot wear at all for example but to me the Burka represents oppression of women. Why don't the men have to cover themselves from head to toe? Because, like in every bloody country/religion in history etc etc women have had to fight against oppression from men, this is no different imo
