Just as much as I don't want the right to demonize the likes of me, I will not demonize them. They are people just like us. Perhaps a little misguided and very set in what they believe, they are still human.
If you look historically political assasins tend to be extremist.

I see Beck and his followers as extremist and dilusional.

I do agree most of them probably are misguided and would not kill anyone...but I think Beck and Palin stir the fear that looses violence, like the dude who stabbed the Islamic taxi driver this week.
