I totally oppose the beliefs & actions of Islamic people, but most are individuals who don't have the freedom to leave their religion or wear what clothes they choose to. I have spoken to a few online that tell me they really have no choice!
As far as I am aware, the people who killed this poor man could be from any race, and they should be punished in the same way that a Frenchman would if he had committed the same crime!

Of course they can walk away from the cult they associate with when they're in Europe. The chose not to.

Hi, thank you for your advice. I will try to avoid those errors.

I remember a news in Germany where they reported about a turmoil on the big plaza in Kairo/Egypt. They talked about 10000 muslims who were demonstrating...

Later I wondered: was it 10000 muslims or rather people or Egyptians? Who asked them all for their religion. Why didn't the news call them "people"?

They do not report about 10000 christians in the football stadium at the weekend but 10000 "fans".

Not very neutral I think.
Probably because they know football fans have no known religion?
Only faith in the team??
Caution TIC!

Strange, I cannot find that answer. Anyway, you are right, that is the view from the south. I took the photo on my jogging course.
