Almost three months after a gunman opened fire at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado, killing three and injuring nine, the facility reopened Monday.

"Today, we opened our doors in Colorado Springs. We didn't back down. We didn't disappear. We returned, stronger and with more conviction than ever," the clinic said in a statement.

The facility is still punctured with bullet scars and other damage from the five-hour siege and police efforts to stop the shooter. Only about one-third of the building was in use Monday, as work crews continued to repair the rest.

But inside, the clinic was ready to receive numerous scheduled appointments across a range of health services.

5. Factually inaccurate.

Nice dream, though. Since the purpose of terrorism is to spread terror, I'd say the success rate is pretty high. The "expert" is basing his argument on his perceptions of the "goal" of the terrorists, which he appears to believe are complete transformations of the society in which they are operating. And to say that the participants in the Boston Tea Party were not terrorists because only property was destroyed, and no lives lost, is an incredibly naive definition of terrorism. On the same basis, we can say that WW2 was a failure because the Germans, Italians, and Japanese are "still there."
