'Militant' atheism is really just people who insist that Christians play by the rules.
So, if you're asking if I support those who file lawsuits on behalf of school children who are being taught that Jesus is the answer or plaintiffs in the Ten Commandments at a courthouse suit, then yes.
Do I attend reason rallies and am I a member of the Secular Student Alliance? Yes.
Would you know I was an atheist unless you asked me outright or say something irresponsible?
No.
I'm not sure where I fall on the scale. But the percentage of atheists who are uninformed and loud is pretty small.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
