Extremism is an interesting concept. Would abolitionists have been considered extremists at one point? Suffragettes? Gay rights activists? Environmentalists? Animal rights activists?

Absolutely not. They were freedom fighters. It's extremism only if it's way different from the current practice AND the left doesn't agree with it.

Sad thought: I initially had this in blue font, then realized it's really true.

Note that islam is never mentioned.
It was hilarious watching Marie Harf and Josh "Not So" Earnest twist themselves into knots saying that it was not focused on Islamic extremism, that there are other types (couldn't list even one), and then saying how the attacks in Paris were people perverting a great religion. These people won't even get it if they are ever on their knees, facing a camcorder, surrounded by hooded men chanting Allah Uh Akbar all while having a Black sheet with Islamic Symbols behind them.

Will Holder be teaching them how to engage legal gun shops to make slightly irregular gun sales to known thugs who will use them to arm the terrorists? They could call it Quick and Mean or "Fast and Furious".
