This a logical fallacy commonly made when arguing against the actions of people that follow particular ideology where instead responding appropriately to the argument at hand, you make an erroneous assertion that the argument only applies to a small subset of people. For example
Me: islam is responsible for religious violence per capita then any other religion.
You: but not all Muslims are terrorists!.
I know we're 18 pages in now..but there -is- a term for it already. Irrelevant conclusion (an informal fallacy). Since you didn't claim that all muslims were terrorists.....a response denying -that- claim is not actually a response to your statement. Doesn't really matter how small or large the subset is...or if the statement made in response is or isn't erroneous. It could be undeniably true, and still an informal fallacy. Not that knowing this term or being able to explain it will do anything -at all- to sway whomever makes such a statement - they jumped off the deep end from point go, they obviously couldn't give two shits about whatever it is you actually said or how that statement might be refuted.
(sorry, I couldn't help it)
Back on point- Whats this business about relishing the thought of violence against many for the crimes of the few, or even all for the crimes of a majority...anyway? Who said that shit and what sort of hellhole are they posting from?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

And this is for you because you're obviously blind. When I have more time to spare, I'll dig out more articles for you to see how many they are and that they're not limited to just 1 or 2 persons. Rape isn't wrong in the Bible as long as the rules are followed. So if everyone follows the rules then rape should be OK, right?

Lol, that was funny ... back when I was in grade school. I'm done here, I don't believe beating on helpless people is right, unlike some others who come come to mind immediately.

I may be a little out of date, but aren't yo momma jokes suppose to be funny?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Insulting for no other reason than you can't be bothered to engage with the debate however is poor form. I don't want to see this descend into an insult throwing match.

Sorry never would've guessed, you came across like a bad warm up comedian that had way too much to drink.
