Keep This in Mind

I'm with Media Czech in thinking this is just the beginning of a sustained wave of right-wing terrorism.

So let's remember just who and what we're talking about.

Hilzoy on the "persuasive tactics" the anti-choicers use.

Hilzoy again on the lives Tiller saved, and what we've lost.

And PZ Myers has the practical response:

Feministe has an excellent list of pro-choice charities. Want to do something to infuriate the women-hating anti-choicers and do something positive in honor of Tiller's work? Donate!

The threat analysis distributed by Homeland Security back in March is a raodmap to (and of) domestic terrorism. As a veteran, I'm mindful of some of our complately unbalanced knuckle-heads and knuckle-draggers. I'm also mindful of real patriots like Eric Shinseki and Blue Girl, who are the rule. The McVeigh's and other extremists are the exception, but such a highly trained and negatively motivated exception. They are so dangerous!

I had to deal with a similar type in VietNam. They would beat on Concientious Objectors. This was great sport to them. The CO's wouldn't defend themselves - such a display of discipline and belief!!! The scary part was that no matter what I did to disuade or punish this behavior, the bullies persisted and major command winked.

As the anti-democratic & anti-choice movement spreads their evil, the tendency to wink at misbehavior by others that re-enforces their prejudices is as evil as the deed itself.
