Using Rep. Peter King's Logic, No Catholic Church Should Be Built Near A School
King's logic is that if a small number of people commit a crime and they all have the same religion then the entire religion must be held to blame. Correct?

Okay then. A small number of Catholic priests raped children, so we must hold the entire Catholic religion accountable. No catholic churhes near schools.

1. Or we could just stop building houses of worship...
...you know, just to be safe.

4. I had a very similar idea that I was working on!
"Not all Roman Catholic priests are pedophiles! It's almost certainly LESS than half; probably a lot less than half!"

Somehow, i don;t think my Catholic friends will take much comfort in that!
