Fair enough.
I just wanted the screaming liberal to say it - that's all 
Interesting, seeing as how black youth does the same thing every day and it could be argued that black moderates do not do enough to stop it a la the avenues you suggested for Muslims, I guess you apply that same logic to the black community - in fact, all communities.
What was that again about not liking your answer . . . .
On edit -- "I have to wonder" -- you are actually hiding behind that

Again you are putting words in my mouth, what I SAID was I was DISAPPOINTED that the moderates arent doing more to control their unruly members! How many ways to I have to say it? I didnt use the words "dislike" or "distrust" anywhere. I have admitted, too, that this is the one area I am not automatically Liberal about, so why you are gloating is beyond me
as for applying that logic to other communities, I havent thought about it really but frankly I cant see a problem with that premise? I think it is the duty of society in general to control its unruly members. Parents are expected to do that with their children, and we DO have laws for cripes sake!!
And as I ALSO said: only the MUSLIMS can change the minds of other Muslims. They sure as hell arent going to listen to a Jew or a Christian!
Again, prior to 9/11, I always had a live and let live attitude............If I wasnt so sure that we were heading toward a "Muslim vs. Christian" type apocalypse (which is what I meant when I said "I hope I never have to say 'I told you so'"), I'd be more than happy to have that attitude again.
ps: racism is discrimination based on race. I am talking more along religious paradigms. not the same thing technically speaking.
EDIT: re: "I have to wonder..." there's nothing to hide behind. I DO wonder. And, I wouldnt be at all surprised if it were the truth.
