Zero Tolerance for Confederate Flag, Nuance for Islamic Terror

I hadn't thought of things from the author's perspective, but he makes very valid points comparing our nation's sudden rush to tear down the signs of the Confederacy with the Islamists tearing down anything they find offense.  I guess liberals are a lot like Islamists in that respect - anything they can't tolerate must go.  Quite the realization when they portray themselves as the most tolerant critters on the planet.

The comparison has its obvious limits, but it does highlight a remarkable double standard. Islamic terror has been on the rise for decades, yet over that time the left's calls for nuance, tolerance and understanding have only grown louder. Virtually no one condones or makes apologies for the Islamic State's barbarity (one can't say the same about Hamas or Hezbollah), but there has been a Herculean effort to put Islamic extremism in "context."
