According to the left in this Country a tiny fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of firearms which are used in crime mean we should ban all such firearms and restrict all citizens from owning or possessing them. But when a Radical Islamist attacks then we are reminded over and over that only a small percent of Islam is radical and we should not blame them all.
Anyone notice a problem with their logic?
Two wrongs don't make a right

It is just as wrong to criminalize someone because of your fear of unlawful abuse of guns
as it is to criminalize someone because of your fear of religious or terrorist abuse of Islam.
People have a right to their guns as we have a right to our religions.
But we cannot abuse either 1st or 2nd Amendment rights to violate the
other rights and laws within the same Bill of Rights and Constitution we are invoking.
The correct way to check against abuses of either 1st or 2nd Amendment
is to teach and enforce the Constitutional laws consistently in context.
So that way, neither can liberals take their interpretation of the 2nd Amendment,
out of context with the rest of the laws, and violate the religious freedom of others who believe differently.
Beliefs and equal protections must be respected equally or that's not equal justice and protection of the laws.
It would be discrimination to impose on people on the basis of creed, by abusing govt to do so.
