That's a fuck ton of people who are being asked to "speak out" about something that they, their religious leader, their friends, their families had nothing to do with, and a lot of cases may not even know about. About a fourth of the world's population should be speaking out??? This makes no sense at all. |
This is a bullshit response.
People are expecting muslims in and around areas where extremists live and are active to (not just) speak out, but try to effectuate some change. If there are a million muslims in a given community and a thousand extremists looking to do or who are supporting harm in the name of Islam, I think it would be great if that community tried to get a handle on it. Mind you, that doesn't mean it's not dangerous. And that doesn't mean we shouldn't also be doing our part by not bombing the fuck out of innocent people.
