"I have 'smeared' no one..."
"I've read threads on FreeRepublic with hard-core pro-lifers posting their refusal to condemn the killer of an abortion clinic doctor. Maybe the movement - referring to the entire movement here, not simply your circle of real-life friends and acquaintances - contains a broader range of attitudes than you believe it does. I don't think Trinity_Tx is mistaken for recognizing that, and I would hope you wouldn't take such personal offense to it."
I don't know, looks like a smear to me. I have argued that these sorts of people are on the very fringe, are not at all common, and thus, aren't very meaningful to the discussion. You seem to disagree.
Instead of agreeing that folks like this are the extreme exception, you appear to be generalizing them to a much larger part of the movement.
But we can agree to disagree. ;-)
