People of Islam Claim we Must change our Laws

In an article by the Gatestone Institute published on Internet, the Institute reported on a month long emphasis in Britain upon the topics of multiculturalism and Islam. A quote from their article says: “This area is home to a large Muslim community. Please have respect for us and our children and limit the presence of dogs in the public sphere…those who live in the UK must learn to understand and respect the legacy and lifestyles of Muslims who live alongside them.”
Can we say the same for the Muslims, namely, that having migrated to UK from a foreign country and having accepted the hospitality of the people of Great Britain, that it is necessary for the Muslims to learn to understand, and respect the legacy and lifestyles of English people into whose country they have moved? After all, multiculturalism is a two way street of interaction and interchange between groups with equal rights and equal status. But this seems to not be acceptable to the so called Muslim community. Instead, they tell others to respect, consider and understand, while they continue to be closed minded.
This writer does not know if the Muslims of Great Britain were invited to move in or they just moved in! Nonetheless, the Muslims are immigrant visitors to Great Britain and if they were born and raised there, it seems they have not accepted the nation, its people or its culture. But they have accepted the safety, security and freedom affirming policies of a parliamentary, historically Christian society. Instead of integrating into the society of Great Britain, the Muslim community has banned together voluntarily as a religious ghetto exclusive to itself and demanding of exceptions from others.
The problems with Muslims that Great Britain is facing are the same problems that could flare up in USA. The Republican nominee for President, Donald Trump, is not a bigot, a religious zealot or a racist. He is merely reflecting the strong opinion that in USA, America and Americans have priority. It is a strong political position because Mr. Trump is reflecting the consensus of popular public opinion when he says that only people who love America, love the American political system, and love the American people, should be let into the USA.
