Everytime one of these are mentioned why do people usually respond with simple minded comments, like shoot them? deport them? etc Do people not reliase its only a minority that cause havoc and not everyone is the same? How many westerners do wrong things? and yet noone generalises them? Look at Bush/Blair, are what they doing right? Stats show rapes are commited by mostly westerns, but this doesn't mean EVERYONE is doing it? So please i request can people stop generalising individuals on Yahoo! Answers.
I am almost 100% sure I will recieve some stupid comments to this question. But to those people who want to respond with a genuwine opinion or comments then please do so.
Thank You

Simple minded comments, like you said, come from simple minded people. Don't worry too much about them. You can't get rid of the galactically stupid, and I am not sure if they're looking for enlightenment.
Ignore the dumb comments. You may not be able to educate all the ones you think are bigots. Some aren't really as stupid as they seem but wish to say such things cause they can and they will get a reaction from it, yet they are free from real punishment

Problem starts from how people start of thinking a Muslim?
Islam never supported any agressive activities and never will do. So issue of laden is different then any innocent dies in Afganistan. If US had porved that they already killed laden. it should have no comments. But prb occured while US killed all Afgani innocent people rather any Afgani Terrorist (Laden). Even the way of thinking is different. US thinks Muslims are always doing terrorist things.. But did we even thought like this about Chirstians, Jews, Hindus?
Islam is a religion of peace. But how did US acted to Afgan and how does Israil acting with Lebanon?
Misunderstanding is not created automatically or by mistake. It's been created by few people definitly to achieve few goals!

People are scared, and rightly so. The Islamic terrorists are not just oppressed foreigners, they are afluent, free members of the west.
A country like the UK offers people the right to express their beliefs freely, to protest aganst others and to speak out against injustice, so how do a group of people given all these alternatives turn to blowing up themselves and innocent commuters.
We are scared, the news shows death and destruction at the hands of Islamic terrorists, they attack us when we are most vunerable, I am sure that if Seiks, Hindus or Chriatians behaved the same we would all be paranoid of them.

Its the media that labels Islam the wrong way, i.e. by generalizing they are all terrorist (which can not be further away from the truth), so that it is embedded in the minds of the people that whenever they meet a Muslim/Afghani/Iraqi/, ppl would think "uh-oh stay away from them, they probably be terrorist".
And it is a fact, there are always black sheeps in every community, but media only sheds light on these black sheeps of Islam commonly, so as to give the image that the whole Islamic community is made of those black sheeps (totally falsehood).
And one last thing i wanna ask of you people, What do u call a person who fights for his country against the foreign invaders? 'coz i refer to them as 'Freedom Fighters or Patriots' not 'Terrorists or Militants'

It may only be a minority of immigrants that break the law, but if the immigrant is illegal and they have been arrested for breaking the law then why should we tolerate them in this country? Surely they should be held until their immigration status has been decided then deported if necessary.
I'd like to see your source for stats on rape, but even so its irrelevant. If the rapist is an illegal immigrant he should be treated as above.
I believe that all illegal immigrants should be deported if, after due consideration, there is no good reason to accept them as citizens of this country.

**** off.
I would be more inclined towards tolerance if I had been given a choice of whether or not they could come here but I wasn't.
I don't like them, don't want them, don't need them. So why should I say anything else apart from **** off?
If you like so much go can go with them too!!
If think this is intolerance wait till the shooting really starts!!!!

I think the reason for this is everyone in the UK has had enough of being the victim of other cultures problems that are nothing to do with us. We are being involved by the offenders fighting their wars and taking actions in our country rather than their own, and then they wonder why UK citizens are so hostile to them!

Well said!! It's the media I blame. They only report the bad stuff about Muslims, never the good, peace loving stuff!

Nothin rong in sayin that cause Muslim do hav lot of funds to raise money for war related things. dey r ready to crucify others just to show they r very strong.
Bush is also doin same things.
War wil b on religious beliefs. all religious a$$holes wil b fightin to show they r superior.
Destroy other religion & other relegious ppl.
In the end really innocent ppl wil b killed.
