Slow down Platoa, it's not racism that you can't marry a muslim girl. It's only that the man being the head of the family MIGHT impose his belief on her or prevent her from practicing hers. So why is it ok the other way round? A muslim man is not allowed to impose his religion on anybody so he won't impose it on his non- muslim wife. Hence such a marriage won't lead to someone having to leave his beliefs. And if you don't believe in Islam, then don't convert just for a girl.
And about killing, it is only permitted in self defence. So please don't take the all too common view these days that muslims kill with impunity. There have always been Kamikazes in every culture, and islam doesn't condone such behaviour in principle. But in the end it's not a must, it's a right to defend yourself. Feel free to give up that right when you're looking down the barrel of your enemy's semi automatic ;)
Peace.
