That's right
Because they believe in violating the rights of other human beings and that's not acceptable, what part of this aren't you understanding?
This is good actually.
So only people you agree with ought to be allowed to run? That's utterly disgraceful and not a democracy in the slightest. That's borderline dictatorial if not outright so.
So you're not understanding any part of the argument then, got it.
I don't care if people agree with me or not when they run for office. If I don't like them, I don't have to vote for them. I firmly believe people who believe in denying human rights to people and are going to use their power to violate human rights or otherwise harm people should not be allowed to hold office.
I don't care how you feel on taxes, the environment, minimum wage, etc. Go hog wild. But if somebody believes, say, all gay people should be executed, then yes they should be barred from holding office.
