As I am not Muslim, I can only tell you about the Muslims I know and know of. And yes, it would be nice to see a bit more public denouncement of terrorists from them, but I do understand their fear. I live in the Bible belt where simply not being Baptist causes distrust! (not kidding either!)
Not sure whether I would publicly draw attention to myself and my family's Muslim faith in the U.S. today. Just look at this thread for the reasons why.

I can tell you this I live in San Diego California and many Jewish people are afraid of living or working around alot of Muslim businesses and Mosque's as they are treated not so well when an Arab finds out there Jewish.
My only hope is that when Mel Gibson's Passion comes out for Lent this movie will not give them a lame excuse to shout another JIHAD agaisnt Israel.
As a christian I hope Muslims see this movie and change there hatred for non-muslims.

As a Southern Baptist, I can tell you that the joke we tell amongst ourselves concerns our fear.... We are afraid, terrified, petrified, that somewhere, somebody is having a good time... :-) Sad, but true...
