Pretty much, but that's why it's usually a bad idea to make an appeal to "Theism causes bloodshed". People get killed in the U.S for their damn trainers, does that mean Nike needs to be purged from the earth?
Debatable, I think they're horribly tacky and hobo'ish but you can see why this doesn't wash with non-Atheists. Every group has its wackos that will do something horrible "in its name", even if "the name" is really an absence of one as contradictory as it sounds.
There's been people who have killed in the name of nihilism, literally in the name of non-existence. It's a bad idea for either side to appeal to it.
