I looked at the link in two ways. It really could be either anti- or pro-metrc. Obviously if it was 'pro' it would be an extremist angle but we all know someone who would talk this way and think the terminology (take over the world warfare, etc) is somehow reasonable.

However, since there were no other responses or "discussion," I concluded it might be better to not dignify the stupid one liner with a response. Zero responses in two days, its going nowhere. I've been searching and haven't seen any real reaction to the NIST press release, only a few reprintings of it or excepts. Gary Brown has incorporated it in the FPLA info on the USMA Laws page. That should probably get a mention in the "what's new" box on the USMA home page.
