Excusing one sin because someone is sinning in another way is wrong. They all need to be addressed.
Fair enough. However, the problem with going after a cult group and not tackling the greater and more disruptive problems with analogous abuses of more powerful groups like leftists, radical Muslims, homosexuals, and black militants gives the appearance that the state is picking on an uninfluential, politically weak group while turning a blind eye on others for fear of riots, terrorism, and bad publicity from the liberal media.
