I could show a bit more empathy towards the Muslim community if, on occasions like this, when their terrorist fellow countrymen strike, they could condescend to organising a march - I believe someone mentioned it back there - and show a bit of sympathy and compassion for those killed and maimed, and denounce those responsible.
All of those things are being done, Arty on a local level which doesn't necessarily make headline news unfortunately.
Locally, Imams are calling special meetings and discussions with members of their own Muslim communities and I know for a fact that a 'Not in my name' march was held recently in Luton.
I used to live in Luton and there is an area called Bury Park which houses a very large Muslim community. They have a Facebook page which makes interesting reading because it shows the anger and despair being felt by people from both sides of the coin:

This video is also well worth a watch:
