I also said taht he brought us to a place to where we could have rolled back the abortion holocaust,

I had trouble believing you posted this with a straight face, but, apparently you did.

Randall Terry put the ugly face on the anti-abortion movement that resulted in RICO being applied to abortion protesters.

He's in the same league with Neil Horseley, who put names of abortion providers on a website, then crossed out the names as they were killed.

Randall Terry was a disaster for the pro-life movement!

Evidently you do have no idea of the evil confronted.

Had your bishops had a set when Randy was in the street, RICO would have never even come up.

Let me note and send my prayers for the notable exception, Abp Vaughn, of blessed memory, who walked the walk

"Randall Terry was a disaster for the pro-life movement!"

I couldn't agree with you more. The focus shifted from the "babies" to getting operation rescuers out of jail, saving their homes, and preventing bankruptcy. It was the pro-choice left that convinced the courts (wrongly) to apply Rico to pro-lifers protesting at clinics, so they (the left) share some of the blame for that one. But there is no doubt Terry and his Operation Rescue followers helped to set the pro-life movement back fifteen years.

I don't know the man, so I don't care to judge him about his family problems. However, I am extremely angry with him for leading so many pro-lifers and the movement to destruction so many years ago, from which the movement has yet to recover. And the division he caused among pro-lifers was devastating. Not enough can be said about this.

But it appears the "pro-life movement" has made for a lucrative career and lifestyle for him.

How else does somebody buy a 432,000 dollar home, on a 30,000 dollar salary? A new 22 yr. old bride.

Like father like son. Good paying careers, from well publicized controversy.
