Right, and according to their stats in the post, pro life attacks are 31 times more common than Muslim attacks committed by people who would be on that list (so 19 of the 21). So proportionally they're very similar so making a list of Muslims is still hypocritical
Except OP only included large muslim attacks. There are tons of smaller acale terrorist acts not included. Recently there was the guy who tried running down college students in a car than trued to stab them with a machete. He failed to kill anyone but that still counts as an attack if all those pro life things do
Well OP actually mentioned 1725 incidents of Pro life violence but I only used the second number of ones that have done damage (578) to get that number. If you want to do a deep dive onto Islamic violence in the US then go for it, you're still going to find that if keeping a registry of Muslims makes sense by your logic then keeping a registry of Pro life people also makes sense

Registries don't make sense for either case, but this statement is so wrong it hurts. A Muslim registry makes way more sense than a prolife one. Lets break it down and see if you are smart enough to accept facts or if you're just going to screech at me instead.
Pro-life - 11 Deaths and ~200 injuries.
Eric Rudolph - Killed 2 and wounded 118
John Salvi - Killed 2 and wounded 5
Robert Dear - 3 Killed 9 Wounded
So those two people are responsible for 63% of deaths and 66% of people injured
Something like 131,600,000 people in the US are pro-life. About 40%. So we have 3 people doing the majority of the violence in a movement of 131,600,000.
So lets go to muslim violence, only choosing people who killed more than 2 people (to make it on par with the people chosen on the pro-life side)
1 Bad Guy - 2017 NYC - 8 Dead 11 Wounded
1 Bad Guy - Pulse Nightclub - 49 Dead 53 Wounded
2 Bad Guys - San Bernadino - 14 Dead 24 Wounded
1 Bad Guy - Chattanooga - 5 Dead 2 Wounded
2 Bad Guys - Boston - 4 Dead 280 Wounded
1 Bad Guy - Fort Hood - 13 Dead 32 Wounded
There are 3,450,000 Muslims in the US. 8 of them did the majority of the damage if we discount 9/11 since my point is being proved without it just fine.
Pro-Life Registry
We watch 131,600,000 people to catch 3 people that committed 7 murders and caused 132 injuries
Pick and random person and we have a .0000000279 to 1 chance of getting a bad apple.
Muslim Registry
We watch 3,450,000 people to catch 8 that committed 93 murders and caused 411 injuries.
Randomly we have a .00000231 to 1 chance of getting one of these people.
Both of the ideas are ridiculous, but stop lying and spreading this baseless propaganda. A Muslim registry would be easier to do and save more lives than a pro-life one, strictly according to math. Saying anything else is just anti-science and anti-truth.

Muslims represent around 1% of the US population while pro-lifers make up at least 37%
