I got a msg in my email so i am sharing it here. Plz read all this share your comments here. When you attack black peoples they call it "Racism" When you attack Jewish peoples they call it "Anti-semetism" When you attack women they call it "Gender Discrimination" When you attack homosexuality they call it "Intolerance" When you attack country they call it "Treason" When you attack a religious sectt they call it "Hate speech" But when they attack Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H), the most respected person for Muslims in the world they call it "Freedom of Expressions" what is all this means. Here i want to share one more thing that maybe in your vision these are not valid explanation because there are different situations but being a Muslim when i see such type of situations i feel so much dis-hearted and sad from the western peoples and society, as recently peoples were trying to burn My Holy Quran publically and no one was seriously trying to stop him even Mr Obama only verbally said that its wrong. Why these double standards for Muslims????

I myself find it very hard to watch or hear anything in the news anymore... It seems like the evil in this world is over taking the good. People who think they are doing good by discrimating against other religions, or people who may have a differant view on certain things should be ashamed of themselves! I dont understand why people are so hateful to others that they dont know and have never taken the time to talk to or to learn about their religion or their beliefes! The issue with your Holy Quran is extremely sad to hear and the worst part is the man planning it is suppose to be a holy man and should know that to do what he was planning on doing was not only moraly but spiritually wrong! he was intentionaly trying to hurt others! I dont really understand how he still has followers that look up to him and continue to listen to his word! As far and president Obama he could do nothing about the situation but give a statement stating that it was wrong. I am sorry for the pain and heartache that some have to go through because of the color of their skin or the beliefes they have... Sad really! Great topic though I am sure there are alot of people who will have plenty to say on this!

Thanks for your positive response. I agree and appreciate your thoughts, we all need to develop the religious harmony in the world and the extremists peoples are very few but they are disturbing nations of nations.

Don't feel so bad. In America, anyone can insult a White person and call them any filthy name they want to and it is just fine and dandy. There is no such thing as racism against White People...lol We are the ONLY PEOPLE in the Whole World that you can insult with every racist remark that you can come up with and we cannot say a thing about it. So, remember that the next time you feel sorry for yourself. And remember that it was Muslims that cut off the heads of our boys on video too. Toodles.

I am American. I think maybe people are so hard on muslims because they associate muslims with alqueda and that with 9/11. Not saying that all Muslims are Alqueda or anything but American's could care less what you are. They have that idea in their head and nothing will probably change that.

It seems educating people will never work... there will always be someone who just "arrived" i.e. the new generation and they may need a learning curve in realizing and internalizing that kindness, not violence of any form, is the key. To end all attacks, perhaps is meant not to happen... What do you think ?
