Fox Host Denies Slaying Of Abortion Doc Was A 'Terrorist Attack'

-snip-

A panel on "The Five" was discussing a recent Department of Homeland Security report detailing the threat from right-wing sovereign citizens, who are considered domestic terrorists. The report noted that the primary targets of those extremists were law enforcement officers, according to CNN.

After co-host Greg Gutfeld quipped that DHS feared "armed Lutherans laying siege in a Hot Topic in a mall," Fox's Juan Williams reminded him of the Oklahoma City and Atlanta Olympics bombings.

Co-host Eric Bolling then challenged Williams to come up with any example of right-wing or "Christian crusade" terror attacks on American soil in the last seven years. When Williams said he wouldn't "get into it," Bolling chastised him for giving a "typical left wing response."

"I remember a doctor getting shot in his church," Williams said, referencing the fatal shooting of Kansas abortion provider George Tiller.

"An abortion clinic shooting, you're calling that a terrorist attack?" Bolling asked.
