WHAT YOU SAID...ABOUT EXTREMISM

``About the Unabomber suspect, the Freemen, etc. I don't see what the problem is with dealing with these people. These militant white people are heavily armed and they threatened several officials. And they talk of separating from the country. I don't see any problem in cracking down on them like they did the Black Panthers.''

- Quentin Jones, Norfolk

I'm just tired of the one-sided liberal stuff you put in the paper. Of course you have to name Perot, Pat Buchanan, Newt Gingrich. And the people on the left, the Rev. Jackson, and President Bill Clinton even, have said the same things. You don't put them in the paper.''

- John McGuire, Salvo, N.C.

As Rush Limbaugh aptly pointed out, the Unabomber is a liberal extremist environmentalist and has nothing in common with the Freemen. The liberals are afraid to call him what he is, the Unabomber that is, he is one of them. He is a leftist environmentalist wacko extremist. He hates technology, he hates anything that is not simple or nature-oriented.''
