I'm really not. The wingnuts on my side just don't seem interested in going out and killing the people they disagree with. The wingnuts on the conservative side, which may or may not include the case of the census worker, seem more than willing to commit murder.
When I expanded to "clean up your house", it was more about the fact that I don't see conservatives often cop to the fact that they often passively defend or entirely dismiss cases of conservative terrorism. "Oh, he's just one madman" doesn't deal with the issue that the madman was spurred on by the environment of ignorance, hatred, and anti-government sentiment as virtues, as if they're somehow moral. That can't be allowed to continue. It was more of a side conversation, though.
