""And those kinds of individuals come in all sorts of backgrounds, from every conceivable religion and race and region." Not from every religion Tom. When was the last time you heard of Jews, Christians, Buddhists, or Hindus doing these types of things? You can put your head in the sand if you want, but Islam is a religion of hate that uses deception and sympathy from the ignorant to continue its mission. Read the Quran and then let's talk. "

Pick up any newspaper anywhere.

Jewish Religious Terrorism

Christian Terrorism

Rising Extremism among Buddhists in Myanmar

Anti-Muslim Violence in India

And I highly doubt this person has actually read the Quran because let’s be real, 60% of it is Muhammad describing rules so the growing community of Muslims could sustain itself. The rest is poetry (actually pretty much all of it is poetry).

Every religion has extremists throughout different points in history. Most of them still do now. The fact that the youngest of these religions has a lot of extremism that is relatively geographically isolated should not be surprising to anyone. 

Islam, like essentially every other mainstream religion, preaches tolerance and respect for other humans. Individuals inevitably corrupt that message to their own ends.
