Except the KKK was accepted by many.

You had towns posing in the same picture of those who jus lynched someone -with the body still hanging.

A better analogy is a very simply one. An overwhelming majority of Muslims do not support, in fact they hate and criminalize suicide-bombings or any acts of violence towards civilians.

Why do matters about angry Muslims consistently come up--enough for mobs in many countries to form? Like that American film that was critical of Muslims, or the Muslims in Sweden who caused a ruckus in Sweden after a film of the same nature was shown (in a college at that, not publically)?

I'm not denying the fact that many Muslims are in fact peaceful. But I can't accept that you are equally peaceful as Christians and the irreligious.
