Great way to generalize.  Completely helps the discussion

...

Now, I guess if you want, you can try to make this some big reflection on all Christians.  But just make sure you do the same for Daesh and all Muslims.

Yikes dude.  You should take your own advice.  I actually find that scary... do you even realize what you did there?

You may just want to reread that a few more times to pick up the actual point I was making.  But I will help if you can't quite find it.  Many are so quick to find an example of a so-called Christian (which for some reason makes him Conservative, as well, even though he was an Independent) to generalize Christians and Conservatives, but on the other hand will defend Muslims when there are 10s of thousands of radical ones killing every day.  In other words, if you don't do it for both groups you're a hypocrite.

I believe that the best way to deal with this is to be fair across the board.  I don't think its okay for anyone to be threatening anyone else's life.  But we have to be better than those who hate.  Over the last week, I saw two two gruseome videos of cops basically executing unarmed black men.  Now, I wouldn't say that all cops are bad and I'm sure most would agree.  We have to be surgical with our critisims because as you said, we don't want to generalize.
