The blood of three people who died and others who are still suffering from physical and psychological wounds is on your hands. You should be charged with accessory before the fact, no different than that bartender serving too many drinks to the alcoholic all too ready to accept them. You prey on the weak-minded among us, and when they act on the swill you spew, you have the gall to stand back and act surprised, condemning the very violence you choose to incite?


Here’s a video of David Daleiden admitting that the ‘fetus on the table’ was a miscarriage … not an abortion:

***********

I've been thinking about the shooter, now known as asshole. He fucked up. The last thing the PTB wanted was something that made it obvious that Planned Parenthood was being terrorized. Asshole not only sets up a siege, he manages to lock down a shopping center on the biggest shopping day of the year. And does it in a bastion of Christian fundamentalism. That makes it hard not to notice the connections - even if the media tries. Now a few people have noticed. Planned Parenthood, and its clients are obviously victims. That despite studiously ignoring the fact that the most terrorized organizations in America, medical clinics that offer abortion services and the groups that support them, have faced a huge uptick in threats and violence since being libeled by a group of pseudo journalists, the press can no longer ignore it. Even the cops of one of the most Christian fundamentalist locales in America are eventually going to have to admit one of their own was killed because some asshole decided that attacking Planned Parenthood was less evil then planning to murder actual living humans.

I think asshole's plan to make a statement and be a hero is not going the way he imagined.

Murder by remote control. Just one of the American right's terror tactics against civilisation.

Not in an exculpatory way, mind you (he richly deserves to be wearing an orange jumpsuit for the rest of his life)...but in the sense of being manipulated into committing an atrocious act. It's pretty obvious Deal has some mental health issues, and I don't think it's going too far out on a limb to assume they compromise his decision-making. They make someone like him susceptible to emotional influence, and the anti-PP crowd trowel on the appeals-to-emotion plenty thick. As a species, we react to phrases like "baby killers" very strongly, for obvious species survival/evolutionary reasons. Hell, I react to that stuff...and I can't stand being around babies.

"Stochastic terrorism" is much more than just the latest buzzword. It's a very real thing, and the people killed by it aren't its only victims.

minds who use others to create death and destruction.

This is all about controlling Women, period.

And it is one of the reasons I am equally against all religions including those which treat Women like 2nd class citizens.

I've seen it firsthand with my aunt. She was at one time well read and somewhat well rounded. After years of Foxnews, she is now very bitter toward the world and says embarrassing things in public that I won't even repeat here.

And if you try and talk sense to her, she gets defensive like you are trying to take her drug away from her. I love my aunt, but her brain has been twisted by RWing lies in the media.

The staff of PP is heart broken, and yet they responded in the bravest way by being opened the next day. Probably the best reaction to the crazies on the right. They did not close like the fanatics were hoping.

When "eco-terrorism charges" are added on to the offenses of an arsonist who set fire to a number of Hummers on a sale lot ( Bush years, remember?) , then no doubt about it, every one of the people listed above should be charged as terrorists, immediately.
