Randall Terry Protests Obama's Notre Dame Appearance

Randall Terry thinks his foolishness, which is only defeating his own cause, is going to stop Obama from speaking at Notre Dame May 17. Terry calls Obama an agent of death. That's just so extreme that it's nonsensical to normal people. How can anyone other than an extremist take him seriously? 
You'd think as a good Catholic, he would focus on the people who are alive and dying because they don't have food or can't get treatment for cancer. Also, if he'd try a more grown up approach to the problem, he might actually be able to reduce abortion. No one is going to wave a magic wand and end abortions, even if it was outlawed. It would be like trying to outlaw alcohol. The first step is to reduce teen pregnancy. He'd be more useful to his cause if he dedicated himself to helping pregnant teens. But as an extremist, he would prefer to be self-righteous, which is what makes extremism dangerous.
