This isn’t freedom of speech. This constitutes threat and harassment.

We all have freedom of speech, but if you hate the neighbors on the left side of your house, and you keep telling the neighbors on the right side of your house that you REALLY (no, really) want to stab them, you might get a visit from some police officers.

Who would I have to try to contact to get some justice here?

What if a Muslim bombed an abortion clinic?

That would really tie the Right up in knots.

Bitter Scribe Says: There may be a silver lining to this cloud. If the anti-abortion movement keeps getting identified with murderous assholes like this guy, it can only help the battle for public opinion in the long run.

Scribe, that won’t happen so long as anti-abortion terrorism is ignored, minimized and rarely called by its right name.

It’s up to us to get the meme out there: an IED at a women’s clinic is terrorism, terrorism, terrorism.

I’ve submitted the MSNBC version of the article to the social networking site where I fight rampant sexism every fucking day, Reddit.com, under a title daring users to explain how they think shit like this is just all about protecting babies.

Great post. The terrorism double standard kills me. Many people even refuse to admit that Eric Rudolph is a terrorist because they have tied terrorism to Muslims. The idea that Christians could be terrorists doesn’t compute with many people–I remind my students about this terrorist and Timothy McVeigh every semester.

Hey guys, I don’t usually point this out, but since this site is “Feministe” and I am a woman…… I did the Rudolph post, not Cliff.

Just FYI, and I love this site. I lurk, but I do come by.
