This kind of incendiary hyperbole actually does exactly the opposite of what it intends to do. Instead of generating outrage and galvanizing the baby-butchering community, it only serves to embarrass the sane middle element and discredit the entire extreme position. Anyone with half a brain — even liberals — know that a soulless creep who slaughtered children for a living isn’t the moral equal of a martyred civil rights leader. And the former’s death hardly compares to the sinking of a civilian ocean liner with the consequent loss of thousands of lives.
Nice try, Doc. Thanks for making a fool of yourself.
Well written, IJ!
