Fallacy of reification: Just because some of the people holding an evil idea are acting on it, it does not mean you may wage war against all of the people holding that idea, including the ones who are not acting on it. You said it yourself, the crime is acting on the idea, not holding or speaking it. Trying to circumvent the requirement of establishing whether someone is or isn't guilty of acting on those beliefs, by relying on the fallacy of reification and pretending the idea itself is literally waging war against us is illogical.

Folks, When quoting other posts in the thread, please start by using the "Reply" button that is just below the specific post, instead of using the "Add Reply" button at the bottom of the page. That will bring in the other person's post as a quote, from which one can remove text to leave just the portion being quoted. One can also use the "Multi-Quote" feature when quoting multiple posts. Alternatively, when adding the Quote tag "manually", you can add the person's name right after the word "quote" inside the opening tag, something like this: [quote name='ConfusedOpponents Name' ]... blah blah blah...
