We aren't. Segregation is a very natural thing. People generally wanna be with their own kind and should not be forced to intergrate.

well more than .01 are terrorist and extremist. Even if it was .01 the other 99.99 stand silently for the most part. its the same principle as good cops staying silent while bad cops ruin their rep.

Well I certainly didn't expect to be treated like someone who grew up there, but on numerous occasions I was offered more food by the locals than the standard Egyptian sees in days. They kept reiterating that hospitality is a right, not a gift.
Because you're white and they think you are rich. Trust me, I lived in China, but even I realized that no matter what, I would always be a second class citizen in their mind. I could never become one of them and for one of them to trust me completely. Yes, I have Chinese friends, but I and every other Westerner there knew that we would never earn their trust.
That's not the case in America and European society in general. I could go to Germany right now and meet true life long friends that would take a bullet for me. China and Japan, no, and the Middle East is even worse about it than those 2 countries are.

1) People fear what they do not understand
2) Xenophobia
3) Belief that muslims want to convert everyone at all costs and or bring about Sharia Law in the States

5 pages so I'm sure SS has found the answer he was looking for in his OP

The basis of their beliefs is to kill others who don't believe what they do? Enough said!

Well, I mean, a large portion of them are trying to do it in Europe: LINK
They will never succeed in bringing Sharia here, that I'm sure of, but I think some of them will go to rather violent means of trying to do so.

Because they belong to a religion that openly condones and practices homicide as part of its faith. Pure evil.
Can we ban Muslims yet?

Well, I never said that it wasn't true. That being said, is wanting Sharia law THAT different than Christians wanting 'Merica to be a Christian nation? Sure, Islam has some seemingly radical beliefs, but some Christians and even Jews have them as well.

Apparently Mr. SS hasn't read the Quran, most certainly not the version I read or he would have the answer to this. The instructions on how they are expected to deal with non-Muslims is enough to not trust them ... and they have no new testament instructing them to be peaceful.
As they grow in numbers they begin to interweave their way of life into society.
There is already a increasing number of Muslims that want to live under sharia law instead of U.S. laws. As they grow in numbers the become more aggressive. The trend can be seen in Europe. It is already visible here.
For every terrorist there are more Muslims supporting them. That distorts all the numbers and percentages being bantered about. Someone has already pointed out how many of those peaceful Muslims was suddenly openly happy on 9/11.
I suggest to any that want to accept these people to read the Quran and study the history of the Shia and Sunni, Sufism, etc. Do you know to which of those the Muslims you are around belong to?
And lastly terrorist don't dress differently so I can't tell them apart. The few have declared war silently (I said declared war so don't bother bringing up Americans killing Americans while identifying with organizations that have not declared war) and they walk amongst us.
And that is "why". I'm just the messenger.

Don't get me wrong, I think they're completely wrong as well, but not to the point of subjugating an entire populace... save the gays with marriage, but that's mere drops in a bucket compared to what these people have in mind.

Not to the same extent. They may be a bit pissed off about some things going on, but I don't think many of them actively wish that something horrible will happen to these people. Can't say the same for Muslims. You're bringing up a pond of problems compared to an ocean.

Perhaps, but I still think that most of these extremists here in the states are very isolated. Probably no more prevalent than people in Westboro type crazy churches. I suspect most Muslims here in the states just want to more or less blend in and go about their daily lives.

Perhaps? Perhaps?! Let's see Matt and Trey from South Park try to make "The Book of Islam" into a mocking musical of Muhammad, and lets see if that's still a perhaps.

Yeah, and how many Christians are in that type of church? Less than 1%?

A lot of them do, yes, but it's really not the Muslims in my own country that piss me off since a great deal of them were trying to escape the atrocities that their native countries were doing. In Europe, not so much. And really, I just wish the Muslims in this country would speak up to the atrocities, but instead their lobbying groups always have some bullshite defense of what the horrifying group or person did and make no apologies.
