The fact that Muslims have to fight against the idea that they're all terrorists and/or terrorist sympathizers would suggest that they are a religion that has been defined by the actions of a few.

I would say that most people in my area do not assume all Muslims are terrorists. 

They're rated about the same as atheists by other Americans in one Pew poll

Which is certainly lower than other religions, but not too bad considering another pew poll found that 48% of Americans do not know any Muslims. 

Also, with it being the fastest growing religion in the world with 1.6 billion members, I do not think the nearly universal association will be global,s especially if it is really only a thing in pockets of the West where there is less diversity.
