A gun would help stop those witches from flying in the sky.

I may be taking this analogy the wrong way.

Okay, the gun thing made me laugh.

But perhaps you aren't taking the analogy the wrong way?

A gun is usage of force. And the paradox of tolerance does prescribe the usage of force against "the intolerant", in a few situations. Not everything is solved by, for example, letting fascists to hang with their friends in McDonald's. (Except Mussolini. Upside down.)
