>>The plural of "anecdote" is not "data." Yes, your parents and grandparents (and mine) didn't go around shooting people. Neither do the vast majority of Muslim immigrants. But there were Jewish mobsters; are all Jews responsible for that? And if not, why are all Muslims responsible for the few criminals among them?

Marcia seemed to imply it in her earlier message (which I don't have in front of me, so can't quote). More generally, we hear it over and over from people who ask why other Muslims don't speak out. I'll go look for cites if you need me to, but certainly it's a refrain I've heard over and over and over.
