I'm going to answer this...just to be helpful.
[Me] During the late 1930s and the 1940s, Jehovah's Witnesses attacked the Roman Catholic Church and other Christian denominations so vigorously that many states and municipalities passed laws against their inflammatory preaching.
[You] Your example of institutional violence isnt one. The JWs werent killing Catholics or visa versa on an INSTITUTIONAL level. Sorry, but your point is rubbish.
The example I gave has little to do with the JWs. It's about the suppression of the 1rst amendment by those sympathetic to those being targeted by the JWs. Much like Islamic governments do the critics of Islam.
*sigh

LOL, now you’re taking yourself out of context. Playing the moral equivalency game isn’t 1/2 as clever as you think it is. You’ve taught everyone on the thread all they needs to know. Your point is still rubbish.
