I don’t use the word “extremism” to label people, because it’s a non-essential that depends entirely upon your time and place. It’s the particular ideas that matter.

People who plot to violently over throw the government are engaged in illegal activity, and should be dealt with. The government should check that out, but it should not be going after “extremism”.

I’m a right wing extremist, in that I am for Laissez-faire capitalism, and individual rights on principle. But, that sort of “extremism” is a good thing and is what the Founding Fathers fought for.
