as the numbers increase, they will get bolder. ALL secular nations have to figure out how to deal with their fundies (regardless of religion) because they are only going to get more brazen as their numbers swell.

Moderate Muslims and the Islamic communities in the West need to get off their asses and figure out how to cut out the cancer that is ISIS from their religion (among other things), cause right now they're losing empathy from others around the world with this extreme bullshit plaguing our society.
