A Little Logic Goes A Long Way

Try this:

#1
There have been and continue to be evil deeds
People(s) perpetrated these deeds
People(s) can be evil

#2
Evil people(s) are defined by their deeds
Evil deeds are a threat to others
Evil people(s) are a threat

#3
Currently evil deeds around the world are often the product of Muslims
I am one of the “others”
Muslims are a threat to me


See how easy it is. Just remove your bias and deal with facts.

History Calls

Through combination of legislative and executive power, Hitler's government suppressed political opposition. On 14 July, the Nazi Party was declared the only legal party in Germany. Labor unions were merged with employers' federations into an organization under Nazi control, and the traditional autonomy of German state governments was abolished.

Having secured supreme political power, Hitler went on to gain public support by convincing most Germans he was their savior from the economic Depression. The Nazis continued eliminated opposition through a process known as Gleichschaltung ("bringing into line").


Sound familiar?
