We're so ultra-politically correct, we cannot have a meaningful discussion about the problems which incubate within a certain religious group. Why are we forced to be tolerant of a group of people that are unabashedly intolerant. If I can find Islamic extremist viewpoints in kids in schools; than surely I can find it being preached at home by parents. I'm not worried about ISIS and Al-Qaeda in Africa or the middle east, I'm worried about it here on the home-front.
Unfortunately, as you noted, the ability to call a spade a spade has had its head cut off (pun intended) by all the politically correct nonsense that we now adhere to in North America.
We are so afraid to offend somebody who doesn't give a rat's behind if they offend us that we are completely willing to let them get away with just what you've detailed. Hate speech, support of terrorism, extremists views on a myriad of topics....etc. The list is extensive and growing. We don't stand up to them, on our own soil, because we have been beat down by the preachings of tolerance and acceptance seemingly oblivious to the fact that in order for that to work, it has to be a two way street
This will ultimately be our undoing. Or it will be the next generation of genocide. Either way, the future isn't pretty
