But the reason I mention McVeigh is because of the presumption that any domestic terrorism that happens in the States is just bound to be the work of some leftist group. It ain't necessarily so. In this case, it probably is, I'll admit. I just don't want there to be a McCarthy style round-up of every leftwing organization as a result of something like this, because the majority of those organizations, like MoveOn, are comprised of decent folk. The media, however, always portrays them as extremist nutjobs -- in which case, that's an awful lot of nutjobs as they have over three million members. Get my point.<BR/><BR/>As for McVeigh... He was as you say "one nutjob" but he didn't act alone. He came from a brood of nutjobs. If you'll remember, in the investigation it was discovered that McVeigh had been associated with a number of survivalists groups. Those people are still out there and as far as you or I know, they still have a propensity for violence.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, not arguing that the attacks on recruiters is the work of rightwing extremists, but, for what it's worth, just reminding you that extremism on either end can lead to this sort of shit.<BR/><BR/>Peace.
