I’m still trying to figure out what was “extremist” about that third picture, where the man’s sign says “I’ll take God and Guns” and the woman’s turns “O.B.A.M.A.” into a disparaging acronym. Seems totally within the “Normal” range of partisan name-calling that is perennially a part of American politics.

For that matter, I don’t think that the sentiment on the sign held by the anti-abortion protester is “extremist”, although I’d wager that the woman herself probably DOES have “extremist” views, given that she went to the time and trouble of bringing such an Off Topic sign to an event where abortion wasn’t even a tertiary focus. But since the “blood of babies” placard avoids calling for a total, uncompromising, nationwide ban on abortion, and merely suggests that God disapproves of the practice, the statement itself is pretty far from representing the radical side of the pro-life movement. QED, the sign isn’t extremist.
