Lots of Londoners are Jumpy and Nervous

The Telegraph reports that British Muslims are protesting the shooting of an apparent terrorist who tried to board a London subway:

Muslim leaders have called on the police to explain why an Asian man was shot dead at Stockwell station.
The Muslim Council of Britain said Muslims were concerned there was a “shoot to kill” policy in operation.
A spokesman said Muslims he had spoken to this morning were “jumpy and nervous”.

Yes, well, they’re not the only ones. Apparently lots of London Muslims think it’s odd that people are looking at them funny:

[A spokesman for the Council] said in the current atmosphere Muslims were very afraid and other people were looking at them in a very suspicious manner.

Gosh, why would that be? Maybe I’m being unfair here, but it seems to me that a great many Muslims are refusing to face reality. For their sake as well as everyone else’s, they need to get serious about helping the authorities root out terrorism, in England and elsewhere.
