The great untold story in news coverage about the abortion issue involves the achievements of the pro-life movement. And there are many, even though you are unlikely to hear about them on evening television and radio broadcasts.

The culture of death simply wants to label us all as terrorists.

What idiot in the anti-abortion movement thought up the term “pro-life”? As a firm believer in capital punishment, I am not now, nor have I ever been, “pro-life.”

Most in the pro-life movement have always accepted the legitimacy of capital punishment.

You're talking about apples and oranges. The term Pro-life is speaking of babies and their right to continue to live their lives.

Pro-life has nothing what so ever to do with criminals who have killed and by their own actions have given up their right to continue to live their lives.

...which is why I have always objected to that term.

It all goes back to the "touchy/feely" notion that saying "anti-abortion" sounds negative......Oh, the horror!

People who shoot abort doctors do all on our side a great disservice. Now that kook has made a hero out of a scumbag abortionist and we all look like a bunch of gun toting extremists.
I didnt like the thing that “man” did, but it is legal in the country. Until that changes, we cant go around doing this as it will put us on the same level as ELF and ALF types. God will be his judge, and the punishment that God will hand out will be 100 time worse.

Pro-Life and Pro-Choice are slogans. The issue is legal abortion, which you either oppose or defend. I have no problem being counted as Pro-Life, but I do have my response ready when anyone challenges my support for capital punishment: “Show me a fetus guilty of first degree murder, who is given vigorous (and free) legal representation, found guilty, and who can be executed without pain; and I'll be pro-abortion/anti-life in that case.”

If they can define pro-life speech as "hate speech", they can have laws written against pro-life speech.

This is why the Right to Life movement must insist that Republican politicians not vote for "hate speech" legislation at all ever.

No one condones that abortion dr.s murder. The only people happy about it seem to be in the press, abortion advocates and those who make money off the killing of innocent unborn babies. It gives them a weapon to use against those who speak out against abortion.

And you totally lost me when you said: "Until that changes, we cant go around doing this as it will put us on the same level as ELF and ALF types."

What? Doing what? Speaking out against abortion? What?

"Pro-life" is a great term.

It is taken as a given that "pro-life" means standing for the protection of innocent human life in specific.

"The pro-life movement I've seen and heard portrayed in the mainstream media and in the "abortion rights" blogosphere bears no resemblance to the pro-life movement that I work in everyday. I've seen the movement branded with accusations ranging from violence to harassment to hate speech"

The definition of "hate speech" according to the Left is any that resists their complete domination.

President Obortion is their poster child.

In the end his seductive words and megalomaniacal actions will fail because they are built upon a faulty foundation.

No structure, no matter how ornate or tall, can stand the test of time on a faulty foundation.

ONE CANNOT CLAIM TO BE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE AND NOT STAND FIRMLY FOR SANCTITY OF LIFE.

PERIOD.

ELF and Alf burn down Car dealerships, Condo sites and medical research labs. They believe that they are doing the right thing and not breaking the law.
The point I was making is that protests must be lawful or we sink into anarchy.

No one wants violence against anyone. Maybe there are a few loose cannons out there in the world but you can’t lay their insanity at the feet of everyone in the Pro-life movement.

Those who advocate for the lives of unborn human beings have nothing to hide or feel ashamed about.

We can see you cant do that because we are rational. The left operates on hate and they feel the actions of one refexs on the group and this is really true when it comes to abortion which they see as a sacred cow that must not be trifled with unless you want to incure the wrath of them.
