I suppose if an Irish guy kills a NYC cop, all us irishmen should be rounded up as well?
Look, I know it isn't quite the same. It is getting harder and harder to not have some sort of negative view of Islam. But there is no way you can paint with that broad of a brush. Even if it is 10% of muslims that are whacked (which is probably off by a factor of a thousand) it would still mean that you would be punishing a tremendous number of good people for no reason.

For the sake of safety and for the well being of our troops and our nation, I will continue to insist that our nation is not safe from the Muslims while they are among us. Just listening of Fox that 9 of the Muslim chaplains in the armed services are Wahhabis. What kind of nonsense is that? Right, religion of peace.......

This isn't about ethnicity, it is about experience with an enemy that is bent on our destruction.
