I used to feel some incredulity when reading things like how some medieval Europeans believed Jews would kidnap and murder Christian children to use their blood for the baking of Passover matzos. That incredulity has evaporated with the knowledge that people (and not an insignificant number of them) today, in the information age, believe Planned Parenthood sells "baby parts" for profit. Despite fact checkers stating from the get-go that the video and the claims behind it were misleading, and despite investigations ordered by grandstanding Republicans in Indiana, Georgia, Massachussetts, South Dakota, Pennsylvania, and Missouri, as well as a Republican-led US House of Representatives committee, all clearing Planned Parenthood of any wrongdoing, the slander persists, and now it has cost three people their lives.

While it appears the video was the catalyst for this particular killing, family planning clinics and those connected to them have long been targeted by arsons, bombings, kidnapping, stalking, assaults, and murders, with or without doctored videos to fuel the aggression. As long as people equate unthinking, unfeeling fetuses with thinking, feeling adults, as long as they refer to fetuses as "babies," as long as they call abortion "murder," as long as they're comparing it to the Holocaust, then it's only a matter of time before another person decides, "I have to save those babies from being killed!" and goes and murders doctors, patients, and the guards and police stationed to protect their lives from pro-lifers. It's not a question of if this will happen again, but when. The field is ripe.
Well spoken, Valigarmander.

And exactly why I am shouting to nobody that this sick man needs to be a nationally recognized example.

He needs to be tarred and feathered, figuratively speaking, and a harder look needs to be taken at the "right" of war-worthy guns in all hands in today's society.

The things I am reading online should not surprise me, yet they still do. So many RW Christians rationalizing what he did. Equating these murders to abortion. And already there is a conspiracy theory-that PP staged this to bolster monetary donations.

A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life’s realities â€" all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. -TR

There are probably people who believe that Nazi Germany staged WWII to get rid of excess Germans, destruction of old German real estate ... and knowing that the Marshall Plan would be coming along shortly.  Ever see the movie ... The Mouse That Roared?
