I'd be interested to know what a "control" group would score.

For instance

Understand "why some people behave in that way": 56 percent

Other groups, minority or not, may score highly on that answer

and for one of the more alarming stats

"Would inform the police if they believed they knew about the possible planning of a terrorist attack: 73 percent."

I wounder whether the general public score would be 100% - perhaps there are other groups out there who would not or are too scared of the police/have other reasons. This would shed more light on the multiculturalism arguments.

I'd believe that the muslim group is probably extreme but without a control group asked the same questions hard to know how extreme. Anyone seen any data on this?
