No one said it's the same. This is the problem, you take an extreme case and you say, "See! Since this [insert ridiculously extremist case here] is obviously bad then my [insert more reasonable case here] is good!"

No one's talking about the obvious stuff here. Like Nazis, or forcing blacks back into slavery or something. I'm talking about being intolerant of reasonable ideas.

It's perfectly reasonable for a bunch of congressmen to get together for a baseball game without being shot.

It's perfectly reasonable for young black military officers to walk up a city street without having a knife stuck in his chest.

Don't even get me started on how reasonable it is for little old ladies to go to churches.
