Thread Name: BS: Muslim prejudice
Subject: RE: BS: Muslim prejudice
let us accept that this is a crime that the culture (not the religion) of the Pakistani community is largely responsible for.

Let us accept that hard work, supporting their children in school, leading peaceable and respectable lives and wanting a bit of security and prosperity for their families are attributes that the culture of the Pakistani "community" is largely responsible for (I taught in secondary schools in east London for 13 years so I do know a bit). That and having to put up with prejudice and racist attitudes. Still, go ahead and focus finely on just those things you've read about that feed your prejudice.
