I don't buy it anymore it happens too often for that and it's always the same religion that's supposed to be the scape goat.
Maybe if we see a demonstration of 15.000 Muslims in Paris against those extremists I get some hope again.
How about 12,000?

Or the Imams of 2000 Mosques?

Let me put it to you this way, if two Muslims had firebombed a church in the US (with no casualties), I'd imagine that a thread would have been made about it already.
Yet earlier today, two white Neo-Nazis firebombed the Colorado Springs outpost of NAACP, and there is nary a whisper.

Still, if you guys want to believe that all Muslims are extremists, exactly as the extremists want you to, then I guess I can't change your minds, just as I wouldn't be able to change the minds of the men who committed this act of terrorism today.
