1. Good. And who warped a 27-yr old man's mind to do that in the first place? nt

2. Just a guess...

Maybe his 'church'?

Really sad for him but I am quite glad he was caught.

I will be watching with great interest to see the reaction among the whacked out pro-life right when he is charged with terrorism.

3. Ahem. Let's call it what it is, folks. DOMESTIC TERRORISM.

Sheesh, the word games these weirdos play when it comes to abortion clinics.

6. No let's call it what it is "Christian Terrorism"

Just like the radical Muslims there are groups of radical Christian Terrorists in our own country. The MSM refuses to call them terrorists and helps cover up their bombings. The MSM always calls the health clinics "Abortion Clinics" as though everyone there is involved in abortion. (I went to planned parenthood for years for birth control and pap smears) They call the Doctors at these clinics "abortion doctors".

We have been under attack by radical Christianity for decades but no one talks about it.

10. I wouldn't use either the term "Christian terrorism" *or* "Muslim terrorism"

-"religious extremist" is closer to the truth, or just plain criminal extremist. There's NOTHING Christian about bombing a clinic.

Welcome to DU.

[hang a left]

11. It is "Religious Terrorism" and it should be labled as such....

Chances of that happening are slim to none. Isn't that a shame??

[NoodleyAppendage]

17. Damn straight. Couldn't agree more. Christian Terrorism is alive and well in US.

Some will freak out around here calling out the truth, but that's only because the truth hurts. Most Christians are loath to admit that they have some in their midst who are just as radical as Muslim suicide bombers.

18. Much of the MSM refuses to call most people terrorists.

"Militants", "gunmen", "insurgents", and even "activists". (I rather liked one instance in which a "Muslim activist" was caught wearing a suicide vest, and the Israeli wall was described as intended to prevent "Muslim activists" from getting into Israel proper.)

Fox is a notable ecxeption.

In any event, there's a reason for the non-use of the word 'terrorist'. It was thoroughly hashed out when the Egyptian went postal at the El Al ticket counter in LA. He couldn't be connected to a group; it was a one-off event, no organization or conspiracy. This was the FBI's reason for refusing to call the El-Al shooting a "terrorist" act. Instead he was simply a "gunman".

19. I think I hear the word terrorist about 20 times a day and I don't watch FOX so I have to

disagree that the MSM doesn't call people terrorists.

Our president calls people terrorists every time he speaks. We are even in a War On Terror. The terrorists will follow us here blah blah blah.

Terrorist

Terrorist

Terrorist

That's all they ever say, unless of course they are Christians bombing women's health clinics.

7. I agree, because that's what it is

It's domestic terrorism, and should be dealt with just as any other case of terrorism is. The lunatic wanted to kill to prove how pro-life he is? Only in Bush America.

4. Excellent!

Glad to hear they caught him. It said in the article that he was already on probation, I wonder what for?

[GoodSpud]

8. Probation was for felony burglary

In Angelina County which contains Lufkin and not very much else....

9. Thank you for that

My curiosity is never ending.

5. So there are WMDs -- just not in Iraq!

Only in the hands of wingnuts.

[youngdem]

12. weapons of mass destruction? Fer a pipe bomb?

Jesus H Christ. The guy should go down for legitimate offenses. Attempted murder, terrorist act, etc. Why bullshit a charge with the WMD thing? A threaded pipe, nails and gunpowder is not a WMD for crying out loud.

The guy still attempted a terrorist act, a bombing, attempted murder, violations of abortion access laws, etc. Why do they always overreach?

[Up2Late]

13. Oh damn, middle name Ross, who would have thunk it.

It's usually middle name "Lee" for guys like this for some odd reason.

Anyway, I'm glad they caught him.

[momster]

14. Or Wayne

Don't give your kid Wayne as a middle name. It's not good.

[Malikshah]

15. Of to Abu Ghrayb or Gitmo with him? He's a threat to national security aftter all.

Anyone want to render him to Themyscaria?

[NoodleyAppendage]

16. Prima Facie Evidence of a Christian Terrorism.

Evans presents a perfect retort to the dumbasses who harp on-and-on about Muslim terrorism and "you don't see Christians bombing each other, do you?"
