At least the gay bar wouldn't attract closet militants to visit Manhattan.
If attracting militants is our problem then we should just ban republicans.
I don't know what you would expect to accomplish by that. NYC is a very liberal place and the militants keep trying to attack it. Are you just trolling?
NYC is only targeted so much because of its large population size and the fact its home to banking and media industries. Hit New York, get the attention of the world and its money. The fact it has liberals doesn't do much anything. If anything, this Muslim vs. Christian war is much more deeply rooted in the devout Christian conservative areas away from the Northeast and West Coast. But these areas are too sparsely populated and insignificant on the world stage to be significant targets.
I would assume he's making an argument on Republicans needing to be banned simply because of the authoritarian, Christian based wings of the party - many of whom want to see a Christian based theocracy in America similar to the Muslim style theocracies in the middle east. The only thing is, these people largely have not taken over power roles in government here while they have in places like Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc...
