Any movement has its radicals that are not supported by most of
its members.

And its radicals whose daring is admired e.g. Eric Rudolph. From
Wikipedia:

It is thought that Rudolph had the assistance of sympathizers while
evading capture. Some in the area were vocal in support of him. Two
country music songs were written about him and a locally top-selling
T-shirt read: "Run Rudolph Run."

Excerpt from the New York Times article "Suspect in '96 Olympic
Bombing and 3 Other Attacks Is Caught," June 1, 2003, at
<http://www.nytimes.com/2003/06/01/national/01BOMB.html/partner/rssnyt>:

Today, even after his capture, many people here [Murphy, NC,
where the capture took place] still identified with him.

"Rudolph's a Christian and I'm a Christian and he dedicated his
life to fighting abortion," said Crystal Davis, 25, a mother of
four. "Those are our values. These are our woods. I don't see
what he did as a terrorist act."
