Oh, please, do tell. Where do 3 to 5 percent of any given population push their believes on the majority? What do you mean by close enough to large populations of muslims? The butt end of asstown? Or actually some country with a majority muslim population?
Oh yes, I can see the people converting to Islam. It's a clear an present danger, since it's so appealing.

Which, by the way, is true for 100 percent of the Western world. Outside of rightwing lunacy.
I was asking a question, when thump said Muslims don't push their beliefs on us, when he says us, does he mean, people who don't live close to large populations of Muslims. If so then that doesn't really say much about Muslims. It's like me saying bears are peaceful creatures, I live in England where the bears live in zoos.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
