Edited Republican Videos Inspired Domestic Terrorist Attack On Colorado Planned Parenthood

Republicans in Congress who promoted these vile videos are as guilty as the man who pulled the trigger.




Edited Republican Videos Inspired Domestic Terrorist Attack On Colorado Planned Parenthood

By: Jason Easley

The mayor of Colorado Springs called the shootings at Planned Parenthood domestic terrorism while it is being reported that the shooter has made references to baby parts and anti-abortion views to law enforcement.

CNN reported, “Suspected Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood shooter Robert Lewis Dear mentioned “baby parts” to investigators and in later interviews expressed anti-abortion and anti-government views.”

It is not a coincidence that the deadly attack occurred on Planned Parenthood after Republicans in Congress spent years coordinating an attack on Planned Parenthood that featured heavily edited videos.


The Hill reported that Republican members of Congress coordinated the attack on Planned Parenthood with anti-choice organizations like the Center For Medical Progress:

Weeks before the first undercover Planned Parenthood video surfaced, Rep. Diane Black was given a sneak preview of three hours of the not-yet-released footage...................

Leftish, Progressives, Liberals, Guys, Transgender, POC, Women, Children, and any other to blame EXCEPT the true culprits, the anti-abortionist who unabated violence towards anyone or anything that does not comply with their train of thought and corporate media runs with their narrative over facts and truths.

I heard those words or close to it on KLZ radio 560 AM in Denver this morning around 6:40 MST.

The show host, Steve Curtis (former Colorado GOP chair) talking with Brian Rorhbaugh (son killed at Columbine and a Christian religious extremist) gave the perfunctory '... of course, we don't approve of the shooting', but spent an entire hour basically opining why do three more murders at an "abortion clinic" make any difference.

The content of the edited deceitful videos were a big part of what was talked about as mitigating circumstances for Friday's shooting.

I don't know where the show is archived ... but there is no doubt that because of the fake videos the far right is still inspiring domestic terrorist attacks on Planned Parenthood.

By keeping the hate simmering on the back burner then creating a trigger which makes taking violent action irresistible to those who are vulnerable.

Sick sick sick fuckers!

"Multiple states—Georgia, Indiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, South Dakota, Pennsylvania, and Kansas—initiated investigations and none have found that Planned Parenthood clinics have illegally handled tissues as alleged by CMP and Planned Parenthood's adversaries. An investigation by the United States House of Representatives Oversight and Government Reform Committee found no evidence of wrongdoing by Planned Parenthood. "

I just find it amusing that Planned Parenthood is their enemy, that Carly Fiorina can rant about 'brain harvesting', but Sam Brownback is cool in their book. Shouldn't he be considered part of Da Conspiracy? Perplexing.
