Home Grown Terrorism

During the 8 years of the bush/cheney fear mongering about Al Qaeda and Iraq - we took our eyes off the home grown terrorists. Why? Because they are of the same ilk as bush/cheney and so were not looked at as serious threats - besides the home grown terrorists had allies in the white house and congress.

Now that Obama is President - the American terrorists feel free to terrorize. They inhabit spaces like twitter and send out nasty comments on sites and blogs. They feel very free to spew their terror - which basically is to threaten to maim and kill anyone who disagrees with them. And yesterday one of these terrorists assassinated a physician in Kansas.

These terrorists need to be called terrorists because that's what they are. Yesterday and today they are cheering the fact that Tiller was assassinated - this from terrorists who call themselves "pro-life." What gall.

The terrorists who don't understand that we still have separation of church and state would have us all follow their version of religion - distorted as it is with ideas that killing is pro-life.

Sorry but you can not force your religious views on me or on any one else....You, of course, are entitled to your own religious views - but your freedom to follow as you choose stops where my freedom to chose my own views begins. We can differ and discuss - but only if you are willing to do so.

Assassinating people who disagree with you makes you a terrorist like the Taliban and Al Qaeda - who by the way, like you, use terror to force people to their religious and political points of view.

Lastly - In spite of your choice of words there is no such thing as an abortion doctor. There are health providers who perform abortions and they do so for medical reasons. And IT IS LEGAL!

Maybe you all ought to go to Guantanamo since you seem to think it's such a neat place to be.

Thank you for calling it what it was...an assassination.

I have no idea how many times I saw yesterday "I'm sorry that he's burning in hell, but I'm not sorry he's dead" or "He was killing the innoncence" (Spelled that way because obviously they can't spell).
