Don't blame entire group for actions of few

(UNEDITED(When the attack was made on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a fourth plane was attempting to attack the White House; Arabic terrorists, who just happened to be Muslim, manned them. These people were not doing these attacks because of their religious affiliation. A person who was of a different religious affiliation did the bombing of the Federal building in Oklahoma City, Ok. There have been other heinous forms of terroristic attacks done to other buildings and places in this country but after these attacks, there have not been the angry words, protests and displays of emotions as that for the attack on the WTC, Pentagon and the White House. It is wrong to equate a whole religious group for the actions of a few terroristic individuals who do heinous acts as the attacks on those landmarks. Put the blame where it rightly belongs. Our US Constitution guarantees all religions in this country and we, as a people of the United States, should do that. Don't put the blame of the actions of a few religious activists on the shoulders of others of the same religious organization. We are much better than that. All Muslims did not participate in the actions of the terrorists. Many Muslims died, too, when those towers were destroyed. Put the blame on the shoulders of the criminals who did the crime. We need to quit blaming everyone for the actions of 19 or 20 people.
