By crafting the dialogue about our side threatening to actually kick them (as opposed to the metaphorical use Holder meant) they are fomenting a violent reaction from their “supremacists,” and actually offering a case for legitimacy of violence. The *resident was right on point with that dog whistle here.

We need to be more careful, IMO, with not serving them up cover like this. We can be tough as nails without implied violent imagery.
