MSNBC The Rachel Maddow Show - 9 June 2009: NWHF President Susan Hill tells tragic news for women's health.

RACHEL: "Have you seen any change in the number or the types of protests outside the clinics that you are associated since Dr. Tiller's murder?"

HILL: "Oh, they've been much more aggressive, much more hostile... Last Saturday, they were yelling at me that I was the next to die, that they were praying for my death. There's been, not only not a let-up, but a more vicious attack."

RACHEL: "Do you see this murder, do you see the acts of overt violence that we've seen against abortion providers in recent years, do you see it as essentially succeeding as a form of terrorism?"

HILL: "It is if we let it succeed..."

3. Yep. You said it.

I just saw an interesting post at http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/06/torture_advocates_mum_on_whether_they_support_wate.php#comment-3492864">TPM on the same subject:

"what I wonder is, how much hair would be ablaze--how many agents would be mobilized, how many task forces would be forming, how many stories would be written--if, instead of "Scott Roeder," the alleged killer's name were "Ali Mustaffa," and the fellow he killed in the vestibule of the church a Zionist rabbi, instead of a Lutheran abortion specialist."

2. Can't the police spare some of their taser devices on these vile creatures?

Why are these terrorists given so much leeway?

4. Rachel - move on.

What's with all the stories about an issue that centers on women? Nobody really cares about women's issues. They are only 51% of the population.

5. If people are praying for murder, they are praying to the wrong God.

No Christian in their right mind would pray for murder. If they are, maybe turning the cross upside down would be better.

6. Human Rights

Who would Jesus prohibit getting medical care?

If our Government can't protect and defend civil rights and human rights in this nation, what the heck our troops fighting and dying overseas for? Oil and global corporate interests?

7. Yelling baby killers rather than mother life savers these fanatic radicals revel in death

[bjobotts]

8. Low IQ mouth breathers filled with rage over imagined murder of dying or dead fetuses.

[bjobotts]

9. Encouraged and cultivated by terrorist groups like Operation Rescue

10. But domestic terrorism is just fine as long as it's not a Muslim doing it
