Yes, to you and me that statement is wrong.
When people act on that statement, we can act against them.
If people vocalize that statement, they can be detained and questioned and present probable cause to be investigated, as genocide is against the law, and so is inciting mass violence.
That is a very different story than banning "homosexuality is a sin" or "abortionists are going to burn in hell."
I totally agree with that. There seems to be a misunderstanding here.
