Usual Suspects
If the recent terrorist act(s) in Boston had been the acts of a disgruntled "right-wing extremist" (as some pundits were quick to speculate), the media chatter would now be non-stop regarding the dangers posed by common citizens opposed to taxes and government overreach. I'd imagine that people like Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin would be implicated as well for "creating an environment of hate." But, this act of terror was motivated by the fervent demon of idealist/authoritarian philosophy (e.g. "the religion of peace").
Supposedly wanting the state and other busy-bodies and control freaks to leave one alone poses a great danger. Wanting to impose a world-wide caliphate however...lets not be too quick to judge.
Another incident from the followers of Allah Akbar incorporated. Who would have guessed.
Serious condolences to all who have suffered from another meaningless act of self-righteous rage.
