POPSSomething's Wrong Murder is wrong. The taking of another life, except in self-defense, is wrong. So is the politicizing of events like this. Notice that almost no coverage is given to the other man killed in this incident. Is his life worth less than the "Sign Guys" life? It seems that the alleged killer held a grudge against 3 men in this small town. The police caught him before he was able to harm the 3rd man. For this we should be thankful to the law enforcement officers and the high school students who witnessed the 1st killing and took down the license plate number of his car. Extreme actions, on both sides, always engender extreme responses. It would do us a world of good to learn to take a breath and approach these issues with our brains instead of our clubs.

POPSNew Craze Sweeps Nation: Killing Granny Most Americans hope to die at home; very few do. Our system only rewards continued treatment. If I have a terminal disease, why do I have to spend my last days vomiting from chemotherapy among strangers? Healthcare reformers propose giving us the option of paying for anti-pain (palliative) care at home, allowing us to die a more natural death, and the wingnuts come out of the woodwood insisting Obama wants to kill old people. Shame on those who would spread such manipulative slander!

POPSRandall Terry compares anti-abortion killer to Nat Turner At this moment in time the abolitionists did not blink. They did not blink. They said, “Slavery is kidnapping. It is a crime against God and man.” They said, “It is an abomination.” They said the slave owners were kidnappers and man-stealers. They railed against the slave power. They railed against the politicians of the deep south and in the U.S. Congress that sustained slavery. They did not flinch. And if we in the pro-life movement are going to prevail, we have got to take the lesson of the abolitionists.

POPSNazis and Abortionists - Not In the Way You Think Cont. As Gloria Steinem pointed out in 1982, a flaw "in the fervent condemnations of pro-choice advocates as Nazis is that Hitler himself, and the Nazi doctrine he created, were unequivocally opposed to any individual right to abortion." Steinem notes: "Under Hitler, choosing abortion became sabotage; a crime punishable by hard labor for the woman and a possible death penalty for the abortionist." Hmmm, let me see: a "death penalty for the abortionist." Some things really haven't changed much since 1933. Back then, it was the Nazis condemning "abortionists" to death. Today, it's the extremist, hate-filled evangelical "Christian" bigots whose twisted rhetoric is encouraging violence against doctors who practice abortion.

POPSRadical Right Spokesman Shows His Stripes Using inflammatory, emotion laden language gauged to stir anger among the Religious Right, Randall Terry spews forth his usual brand of god-inspired, holier than thou bile, to justify the killing of another human being. Granted, he's on the fringe. The sad fact is that I hear justifications that Terry makes aped by his less vitriolic as well. By and large, they all hinge on religious dogma. Not on fact, not on science, but on arbitrary rules set forth by religious authorities.
