<boggle> it's just a bit of cloth, it's not like they're killing innocent
civilians or anything!  And can you define 'extremist'?

If what you mean is that you have no patience for people expressing their
political views and their disapproval for the actions of the US state,
then say so, but to compare legitimate political protest with rioting is
... [looks for word; Roget fails to help] ... silly.

Hmmm, rather inappropriately, Stu Hamm's rendition of the Star Spangled
Banner just came on my random mp3 thingy.  He actually makes it sound
like music unlike the ghastly warbling sopranos I usually hear.
