I'm countering his claim by saying that if he's going to excuse liberals by writing this guy off as "insane," he must also excuse conservatives by writing the Sikh shooter off as "insane." That, however, directly contradicts the first part of the piece that I quoted; specifically, the bolded portion.
He's saying it's okay to stereotype conservatives as being insane, based on the actions of one individual; and then in the same post, defending liberals by saying you can't judge them by the actions of a single individual.
I got a little sidetracked along the way, yeah. To be fair, though, if you still defend what this guy says, you're just as guilty of being a hypocrite as he is.
