The_Duendin was wrong to post what he did, because it does come off as extremist. However, the funny thing is that the people before him were posting things just as risky and insulting.
Until shown otherwise, this was an isolated incident by one or more truly disturbed individuals who will with any luck be caught and severely punished. To make an immediate beeline to shouting down Glenn Beck and Michele Bachmann and people you disagree with without any evidence is, as was said, like someone drawing a line from terrorist activities to anti-war and liberal anti-government activities.
I don't recall many people liking it when those lines were drawn in the past.
And, just as an aside, how long until the first Hannibal Lector jokes start coming out?
