i'll level with u that there are some violent muslims, but you could just as easily and arbitrarily link this to poor per-capita lifestyle as you could religion
plus ur ignoring all of the non-religious violence that occurs in ur country. i know u said u dont care because drug-dealers, etc... but isnt that rejecting something that don't jive with ur world view?

You can't easily and arbitrarily link this to poverty, because there are plenty of cultures that have had to deal with poverty, racism, war, etc and end up doing just fine. Chinese, Vietnamese, Hmong, Korean, Japanese diaspora worldwide are some examples. These are not racial differences, but cultural ones.
Rejecting a fact is different than rejecting an analysis. I acknowledge many people are killed by gun violence domestically. I reject that this somehow invalidates outrage toward terrorism. People like Jar outright reject the fundamental observable attributes of Islamic cultures and the ways they interface with their host nations.
