Anarchists are the very least of our "violence problems"

Is quite unfair to equate them to the other two.

but as far as I know "Atheists" in general, are not noted for being particularly unruly or threatening w/ armed violence, unless you can enlighten me as to who these folks are. I doubt that the atheist demographic is any more prone to gun violence than the general population.
