People have to understand, those types of incidents, always make the press, thats why some think all muslims are like that. BUt nothing could be further from the truth. Most want peace, and dont want to dominate the headlines, for the wrong reasons. BUt thats all that they show, they will never show you anything good accomplished by the muslim community.

Indeed, half the muslims I know are not too bothered about Islam, they just get on with it. I think it is to do with indentity crisis is some care. Are they British, Muslim, are they from where their parents are from ect. Some can deal with it and class themselves as whatever they want and get on with it. But if they face prejudice and that, they tend to look some other things such as extremism. But that should not really be happening now as we've had muslims over here for decades. Maybe some people are just more prone to violence and act that way because they can. Same with people who joined the IRA when they were most active.
