Liberal logic

Liberal logic is an argument that has logical appeal to a liberal, but is nonsensical. Let's build a list:

• belief that a correlation (e.g., between atheism and suicide) can be disproved by a counterexample (e.g., one atheist who remained sane)
• free speech for anything and everything ... except the conservative truth
• an atheistic culture cannot harm anyone, but saying a prayer in class can cause tremendous harm
• increasing spending by government must reduce poverty (no, dependency increases poverty)
• teaching abstinence-only does not reduce premarital sex
• widespread ownership of guns, largely defensive weapons, must not reduce crime
• that new laws reducing the gun ownership rate by 0.1% and a subsequent election of a left wing government are not linked
• that lack of government programs to rehabilitate criminals must not reduce crime
• that increasing taxes must increase government revenue (no, often people work less)
