Crowing that something is wrong or under attack and then adding as a footnote or disclaimer that no one should take extreme action is like talking about a particular ethnic group as "cockroaches" that need to be "taken care of" but stopping short of actually saying "kill them". And yeah, if you are too bone headed, I just intimated that the Rwandan Genocide started like that, and it did. Radio stations started broadcasting hate about Tutsi early on but halted before spelling out that they (the Tutsis) should be exterminated.
Your belief that these things are wrong help foster the radicals. The vast majority of christians are enablers of the intolerant fox news watching extremists.
Even if you attack the action you share the reasoning.
Hate leads to hate, no matter how light it starts out.
