If you don't start with putting me down, I won't hit back.
In the past twenty years, you've always thought yourself superior and not have wanted discussions of equals who may have differing opinions. In the past you could flex and ban people. You can't do that here, but you continue to be snarky and condescending.
Everything in your post is meant to insult. Why would I want to respond when that is I'll ever get back from you? If you want to put think in a civil manner, maybe you'll get a response.
The reality is on this thread and on the thread about Islam, your stance is very clear and disturbing.
By the way, here are the FBI's hate crime stats where Muslims were the victims, -

No group is perfect and Muslims aren't. Some commit crimes just like some Jews do and some Christians do and some atheists do.
Here;s a breakdown of hate crimes in the US.

"Religious bias
Of the 1,340 victims of an anti-religious hate crime:
62.4 percent were victims of an offender’s anti-Jewish bias.
11.6 percent were victims of an anti-Islamic bias.
7.5 percent were victims of a bias against groups of individuals of varying religions (anti-multiple religions, group).
6.4 percent were victims of an anti-Catholic bias.
2.6 percent were victims of an anti-Protestant bias.
0.9 percent were victims of an anti-Atheist/Agnostic bias.
8.6 percent were victims of a bias against other religions (anti-other religion)
Although I'm not directly answering DeacMan until he becomes more and respectful, one should think about Somali problem in MN also having more EU tendencies due to the fact that a large number of that population live in virtually segregated neighborhoods and lower income areas. When you add those factors, to the nature of their home country, using this group as an indicator of anything other than groups with this extreme set of criteria is not useful in discussing general Muslim assimilation in US.
