And Akashic, this just sounds like a gross generalization of Islam.

No, terrorists and radical fundamentalists are the problem.

Are all Muslims pissed off? Have you even met one? Or tens or hundreds of them to truly understand them, or read up about Islam? Hell, they're all around me, and they're usually a bunch of nice people. And Islam is a religion, so you can't be racist for hating them.

Why are you concentrating so much on what you don't want? And why do you believe all Muslims are evil? And why do you believe the best way to remove something you don't like is by lashing at it
And like sheffy4 said, try reading up about them instead of just thinking of them as angry Arabs in turbans and beards with an AK47.
I used to be a Muslim for 16 years, so hey, I know what I'm talking about.
