... It is time to let the scales fall from our eyes regarding the language of anti-abortion zealots like Randall Terry.
By inferences that barely hide their bloodlust, and by a tone of voice that barely conceals their enthusiastic approval of murder, extremists at the fringe of the pro-life movement are inciting violence. They are mocking the very virtue they claim to celebrate: the sanctity of life ...
It has become a macabre tradition. An abortionist is murdered (Tiller is the eighth practitioner killed since 1977), and the Randall Terrys out there immediately respond with "condemnations" of the bloody act that barely cloak their glee. If genuinely pro-life opponents of abortion are to retain the stature they deserve, condemning the violence does not suffice.
They need to start condemning the radical, bloody-minded activists among them.
