Questions?
Let the mouth frothing hate begin lol

I haven't really seen, here or anywhere else, anyone claim "hatred" of all gun owners. Sure, it may have happened somewhere (even here.) I just haven't seen it.

What I do see, multiple times daily, right here on this forum (and others I am on from time to time) multiple people saying things like:

"Liberals have a mental disorder."

"Liberals are brainless."

"Liberals are fascist dictator-types."

"Liberals are commies."

"Liberals are godless @-holes."

"Liberals want to take everything everyone has worked hard to attain."

...and variations of this baseless, hypocritical nonsense.

For the record, I am not a liberal and I believe in the 2nd Amendment and endorse the right of private citizens to own guns.

I agree. If someone does that, they are off the rails. It IS senseless, not to mention absolutely untrue.

The vast, vast majority of gun owners are perfectly reasonable, rational, peace-loving people.

...in a world that expects us to not blame every muslim in spite of the teachings of violence and the history of violence of the religion.

Firstly, The Bible (and remember, Islam arose from Judaism just as Christianity did) contains a great deal of violence, with god destroying all humans in the world except for one family, punishing cities by laying waste to them, exhorting his followers to march into villages and kill every man, woman and child, etc., etc.

Christianity, too, has a very deep and wide history of violence.

Of course, at this point in history, Muslims enact more violence than Christians, in general terms.

But the vast majority of Muslims are perfectly reasonable, rational, peace-loving people.

In my opinion, the extreme zealot violent radicals (Taliban members in particular) should just be killed on sight.

The point, which you obviously missed, is there is actually a lot more reason to blam muslims for violence than there is gun owners for gun violence. Yet it's not PC to do so with muslims and is ok to do so with gun owners.

No, there is really no more reason whatsoever to blame either all Muslims OR all gun owners for the actions of a few.

Violent @-holes who go shooting up schools or go on kill rampages with guns are no more indicative of gun owners as a whole than Islamist suicide bombers are indicative of Muslims as a whole.

Similarly, groups of hateful idiots like the KKK and Westboro Baptist Church are not representative of Christians as a whole, the vast majority of whom are perfectly reasonable, rational, peace-loving people.

(I agree, though, that the PC nonsense has really gotten out of control.)
