I am on point. I saw the result of the overheated rhetoric of the 60's. First, some idiot students shouted "off the pigs." Then, some nutsos took that literally, and decided to kill a few policemEn.

When "leaders" use language that is inflammatory, they set unbalanced individuals into action.

Such "leaders" are just as responsible for the resulting violence as if they themselves pulled the trigger or planted the bomb.

Incitement is no more excusable when done by the late Abbie Hoffman or Bobby Seale than if done by George W. Bush or James Baker.
