> that should go without saying for you people

Ummm, "you people?" Who are you referring to?

> islamic extremism is a cultural practice tho.

You used the word terrorism originally. Extremism is very different. More accurately, I would call it conservatism, with extremism common especially in social and family matters.

Look, you won't see me defending Islamic (or any other conservative religious practices) at all. But I'm just pointing out that the comparison you originally made around terrorism as a cultural practice was wildly inaccurate. There were many examples to use, this wasn't the right one.
