Thats the far right for ya. Polar opposite of the far left.
One is no better nor worse than the other.

Extremists on both sides suck, true, but it is rare to hear of leftist groups in the US detonating a truck bomb, killing hundreds of innocents, and destroying a federal building when they got angry that taxes weren't raised to support social problems.

Given the large number of people shouting that the "tree of liberty needs nourishment" and people showing up armed to town hall meetings, I'd say fears of a new 9/11 incident stemming from foreign terrorists don't hold a candle to the current tensions that might lead to another Oklahoma City/Waco/Ruby Ridge. This, coupled with popular heads in the media that seem to encourage the mobish behavior, is infinitely more disturbing than any recent leftist protests.
