Addressing the crowd after the march, Sheik Mohammed-Umer Esmail of the North Austin Muslim Community Center quoted the Quran: "Whoever kills a person unjustly, it is as though he has killed all mankind."

"Unjustly" ... aye, there's the rub.
The actual translation of said 'verse':

Surah 5:32...For that cause We decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption[or, 'for spreading mischief in the land'] in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind....

And lest there be any doubt as to who are those that are 'guilty' of corruption in the earth, or of the 'spreading of mischief in the land', - and what should become of them - Surah 5 does not leave its reader with doubts...

Surah 5:33
The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement,

And another oldie, but baddie, from the Surah 5 collection of greatest hits:

Surah 5:51
O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk.

But I'm sure it all sounds so pleasant and peaceful in its original Arabic...something surely got lost in the translation...

The evidence of the intentions of Islam belie your words.

They are counting on the general publics and especially the MSM’s ignorance of the koran. Those who have read it know that to be innocent in islamic eyes you must be a muslim. Otherwise you are guilty of a death crime.

On Sunday, about 130 people rallied at the Capitol to declare themselves peaceful and denounce acts of violence committed by extremists in the name of Islam.

Only 1,199,999,870 to go!

"If we change one person's understanding of Islam," he said, "then this is worth it."

Start with the alleged "10%" of Islamists.

The purpose of this march is to change the opinions of non-muslims to make it easier for muslims to take over.

***”Our religion does not teach to kill innocent persons,” said Jafri, 47.***

I object to that.

My son was living in Austin when 9/11 happened. The next day he was in a convenience store and pointed out to the Arab guy behind the counter that the American flag was displayed up-side-down. The guy glared hard at him and turned it right-side-up without saying a word. That was when he realized there were a lot of them out there.

There’s nothing non-violent about Islam.

9,470 Terror attacks since 9/11.
