If christian fundies started becoming militant and starting riots, we would start arresting them too. Does it matter if the government of a military dictatorship does it, or a government of a democratic country does it? I don't think so.

WRT nazi-istic developments, don't you think the Islamist governments of Iran and the Taliban more closely resemble the nazis because they kill anyone who doesn't believe what they do?
