Largest Muslim community in US only musters 50 to protest Islamic terrorism (Jawa Report) 01-10-10

This makes the Muslim community appear to be less than concerned about the threat radical Islam poses to the safety and well-being of this country.  Those who are concerned need to stand against the radical extremists of their religion.  Not to incite suspicion, bigotry, or hatred, but one has to wonder why non-radical Muslims living in America would not condemn and actively protest the actions of radical Islam.  Are they sympathetic to the cause of the extremists? Are they simply apathetic about the situation, in general?  Those who adopt either position are potentially part of the threat to this country, and potential recruits of the Islamic groups whose goal is to kill and harm Americans.

Every American has an obligation to speak out against people, groups, and actions that threaten the safety of this country and it's democratic principles.  That's why we PUMAs speak out against the Anti-Democratic actions of the Democratic Party, which assaulted democracy in 2008, by preventing  free and fair election of the party's nominee.  If Americans, including the non-radical Muslims, do not stand against evil, we, in effect, stand for it.

Largest Muslim community in US only musters 50 to protest Islamic terrorism


The Associated Press reported Saturday that only 50 Muslims showed up at a "Muslims Against Terrorism" protest at the federal court in Detroit on Friday while Flight 253 bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was being arraigned inside. The local Detroit press were more generous with their estimates, putting the number of protesters at 150. That the largest Muslim community in the United States (aka Dearbornistan) could only muster such a tiny number to protest Islamic terrorism is an indication of how great a problem our country faces concerning the sentiments of the Muslim-American community.

I hope these numbers are not reflective of fear of reprisal... from relatives and 'friends.'

Speak up fellow citizens! We need you to speak up and be in solidarity as a country! It is our time to be together as a nation, guys and gals!

I am glad to see this, I have muslim friends, and I want them to speak up as Americans, and have encouraged them to do so.

when we lose an Amerian life as we did so many on 9/11, its was not muslim or christian or jewish... it was AMERICAN!!

50 is good start, I hope more will come out, then the stereotypes will fall away even faster when Americans see that their fellow americans of muslim religion condemn all these terrorism agn Americans!.

I've heard from local sources that most of the people speaking out are from our relatively small Nigerian immigrant community, not the Arab community which is much larger and has more political influence.
