Gotta agree with that.
Our main local shop is run by a Muslim family, who are also good friends and hugely active in the community, including church fundraising and church groups. It’s just that sort of area. The Catholics support and raise money for the mosque to send kids to the seaside for a holiday too. We look out for each other. That is what a community does.
And they have been a focal point for the entire community defence effort.
I know talking in defense of Muslims risks me getting asked for the zot by some of the more zealous members here - but this is not a religious thing.
This is jackals and scum against people who believe in working, paying taxes (ok, fairly grudgingly) and doing the best for their community they possibly can. Being a part of and supporting the community.
Scum who believe that they don’t need to work for what they want, but can just take it need not apply here. Scum who view a community as prey.
So please. I ask respectfully - don’t paint them all with the same brush. Just this once.
Sad to see the old country in flames like this. Stay safe.

Regardless of religion or ethnicity, if you obey the law you are to be respected. If you engage in mob behavior you are a scum sucker who deserves to be shot. The End.
