It's a warped case of "they're attacking us so we'll attack them". Innocent people always caught in the crossfire.

Ah that classic excuse for the thugs to go thuggish.

Which is exactly the kind of language used back in WW2 against other groups (such as Roma, Jews, etc) so let's be very careful about the way we phrase things here.

You usually can't spot a white supremacist until they attack a school either, so I really don't think you can use what you've said as a justification for generalisation and stereotyping.

umm, I agree! We should be profiling and monitoring ALL white supremacists groups, you are totally right that MOST white supremacists never actually commit a terrorist act, but SOME do, so we should be monitoring them all! just like muslims.

Well I can't agree with monitoring, but at least we can agree that if it's done, it should be done equally to all groups.
