Well, obviously. But how is it defending Newman, Pug, and others on that 
list to describe them as provacateurs or place them in the same category? I 
don't really care if he's saying we should just tolerate them, that kind of 
talk is just plain bullshit and leads to the very witch hunts everyone says 
they want to avoid.
