What is boggling is that you don't see the difference. The killer of the doctor subscribes to certain beliefs that he was justified in his actions. A justification you concur with based on your post. A justification many Americans concur with. Which means that other doctors are credibly threatened.
The killer of the soldier may think he was justified in his actions, but not one poster on this thread or any other agrees with that. There is no wide-spread support for him, or even people empathizing that while they think he went too far, they can understand his actions.
Both acts were acts of domestic terrorism. But Tiller's murder was an act of domestic terrorism whose foundation is completely domestic. The Little Rock incident is rooted in international matters. Tiller's murder was committed by someone whose ideology is shared by many other Americans. The other was more of a lone wolf action.
They were both murderers. Anti military is typically a leftist thing. Why did one get such a staunch response from the WH and the other one didn't?
What a stupid f*ing remark. The gun crazy RW religious zealots of this country are the danger. I'm a liberal and I served 6 years. Cheney = 0, Bush = hard to tell he was AWOL most of it, Newt = 0, Kerry = 4 year.
There are plenty of posters on this board that despise the military - they are just too cowardly to come forward.
I think not.
There are many left-wing/liberal groups that hate the military and what it stands for - all those anti-war activists spouting their garbage about our fine men and women of the military. That must have some influence on some of the crazies out there, like the shooter in Arkansas.
Even though you edited your post, it is still irrelevant. The shooter in Arkansas didn't target the soldiers because he hates the military. He targeted the soldiers as retribution for the Muslims killed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The left-wing anti-military, anti US kooks are there for all to see.
Please reread DC at the Ridge's excellent post. And the summary of it s/he wrote for ya.
