Reports of the arrest of seven suspected Muslim terrorists has 27 percent of the nation negative towards Muslim immigrants

More than one in four Danes has become more suspicious of Muslims in Denmark after reports of seven young Muslims being arrested on terror suspicion, daily newspaper Urban reported on Monday. Accoring to an opinion poll conducted by Instant-Answer for the newspaper, 27 percent of 1500 respondents said the arrest of the seven suspects had changed their opinion of Muslims in Denmark for the worse.

'It's grotesque to lump all Muslims together and conclude that all Muslims are either terrorists or sympathise with them,' said Niels-Erik Hansen, leader of the Documentation and Consultation Centre on Racial Discrimination. 'It's a dangerous development and a sign that there is a growing breeding ground for racism in the country.

If you disagree with my statement that not enough are taking up arms against or turning in the terrorists and their supporters, then you believe that enough are.

We clearly disagree.

So, because muslim terrorists are worse, we should just hate all muslims in the world? That makes sense.

Why not just say that outright instead of draggin black Americans into the argument?

So, since we didn't see blacks in LA "take up arms" and start turning the rioters "in to authorities in large numbers ", you must have associated all blacks with rioters.

Last time I looked all blacks did not believe in one "holey" book that called for all non-blacks to be slaughtered if they refused to become black.

Since you brought LA rioters into the mix, have you been reading The Best of The Web?

From TBOTW...

Mahmoud Khabou, 20, the jobless son of Algerian immigrants, knows little of the world beyond the concrete housing projects that rise in bleak rows barely an hour's subway ride from the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, and other grand monuments of Paris.

But he knows who his heroes are. ''Osama bin Laden and Rodney King," he said, referring to the Al Qaeda leader and the African-American whose videotaped beating by Los Angeles police in 1991 spawned massive racial riots.

''One because he gives pride back to the Muslims," the young man asserted as he and a trio of friends stood near the charred ruins of a carpet shop. ''The other because he was just a poor man, a 'nobody man' of color, but he caused a great city to burn."

Exactly. Comparing black rioters in 1992 LA to the current crop of rioters/mass murdering psycho terrorists is not a very valid equivocation at all. This Brooklyn Kid argues like a Liberal and sounds like he'd be more at home at the Democratic Underground.

Doesn't make every muslim in the world a terrorist. Thank Goodness or we'd have something like 1.5 billion terrorists on our hands.

I guess for starters, one could argue that one many subtract many of the huge percentage of their own population that they keep imprisoned under slave rags, who have less right to act on their own than a dog in the western world, because of islamic gender apartheid... perhaps not the answer you were looking for tho.

No, I doubt very much that enough are. I don't think enough people report rioters when they happen anywhere in this country either.

But it seems your anger and many other people's on FR , has spilled over to include all muslims. Our soldiers are fighting for and along side muslims every day. They know they aren't all terrorists. So, I find it very disturbing when I read these kinds of all inclusive negative statements about muslims.

I don't know if we really disagree or not.

Oops, the first line, above, was a quote from Brooklyn Kid:

No, only 27% changed their opinion of Muslims in Denmark for the worse. I'm sure many of the citizens already had a negative opinion that maybe did not get worse with this news.

Fair enough, I just got thrown off by your comparison to Black rioters in LA, which doesn't illustrate your point as well as your subsequent comment in post #48.

Sorry. It was the only rioting by a specific group of people that went on over a period of time like the riots in France, that I could think of.

The Danes have become so politically correct that they will not leave their homes to fight off Muslims trying to set it on fire.

It's even more grotesque that those who aren't terrorists or who supposedly don't sympthasize with the terrorists DON'T COME OUT, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, AND LOUDLY CONDEMN THE TERRORISTS.....

The invasion of EUrope by the Mo'ham' death cult is into its second generation. Some guest workers.

Some strength through diveristy. For three generations since 1945, post-Christian, post-capitalism socialist EUropeans have willfully disarmed, under Pax Americana, and are thusly completely ill prepared to defend their way of life, AND their own futures.

The Frenchy French muslims are demanding their Andalusia back. Sorry Spain. The Scandanavian muslims shall continue to rape their way to honor and power as many are sleepers and 5th columnists, ready to be quislings - for the fatwas and rebellions.

There are hardly enough Danes to cope with a hundred much less a thousand EUariban terrorists in that PCed EUtopia's spit of land. Pity the children in that uncivil unHoly war.

Maybe alot of them are simply too scared to? Afterall, we know well enough what can happen to people who criticise Islam.

Then that's truly a mark of lack of character, isn't it?

Standing mute in the face of evil.....

then how can one not assume they don't agree with the evil if they don't take a stand against evil?

Yeah, there was one I used to work with. She was ummm... mostly polite, she was more or less friendly, but difficult, very touchy, would get angry easily, stab you in the back. A modern muslim lady, no muslim clothing for her, she even did a shimmy dance at a party I was at, but in other ways... you couldn't bring up sexual matters around her.

One time she was talking with some of her Hindu colleagues, and I heard this Hindu lady say "Eeef they cannot prahctice their religion without becoming violent, then they should not be allowed to practice their religion at all." Dead silence for a moment. Then you wouldn't have believed the caterwauling of the argument that came out of that room. Them's fightin' words to a muzzie, I guess.

Later I found out she was very 'active' in the muslin 'community'. It would not surprise me one bit if she had terrorist ties. Not one bit.
