I am infuriated that people think that crime in Muslim countries represents Muslims, but crime in other countries represents criminals.

- mikeash 10y agoI don't see anyone here saying that this represents all Muslims. There is a difference between stereotyping an entire group based on the actions of a few, and merely acknowledging the actions of a few. The fact that some Muslims practice honor killings is just reality, same as the fact that some Christians murder gay people or drive them to suicide. Pointing out that some may suffer due to the actions of those few does not in any way imply that the whole group is in any way represented or complicit.
- projectramo 10y agoWell, to give an example, I didn't see people worried that Madison Ashley leaks would lead to people murdering their spouses and children, even though that happens in these cases. How come no one took some time to point that out?
