Let's say there's a group that draws satirical and offensive drawings of KKK leaders, and then two KKK members show up at the group's building and tries to shoot them over the offense. Would these people say "yeah well, they should have known better"? It's just another manifestation of the untouchable bubble (or, untouchabubble) that religion enjoys right off the bat, where criticism and satire is somehow forbidden just based on the mere fact that it's a 'religion'.
The media does like to ignore the fact that the terrorist groups that threaten America the most are actually local right-wing or religious groups. Not that there can't be overlap between these groups.
Part of the problem is that christians and muslims are so similar, that when they see a muslim kill someone for religious reasons they get jealous. They want to be able to do the same thing, except while worshiping Jesus instead of Muhammad.
