A little consistancy please
Any takers on why this isn't a good comparison? Looks outstanding to me.
Anti-abortion fanatics destroy abortion clinics, try to impose their political beliefs on others
Whoops -- sorry, by "anti-abortion" I meant "environmentalist," and by "abortion clinics" I meant "houses and cars." Apparently, radically anti-human environmentalists have been destroying property they don't like and endangering other peoples' lives. Their targets are new housing developments and SUVs.
We await the following:
• Reporters asking the Sierra Club, World Wildlife Federation, and other non-violent environmentalist groups if they repudiate these domestic terrorists;
• Reporters asking John Kerry and other prominent Democrats if they think the Earth Liberation Front is a legitimate political organization; and
• Reporters grilling environmentalists about whether they are sincere about their beliefs -- because after all, if you oppose suburban land growth and big vehicles, you must necessarily use violence to destroy those threats, as surely as night follows day.
I wonder if there will be a ratio of about 1,000 news stories for each SUV destroyed, the way there was about that many stories for each abortion clinic bombed and abortionist murdered.
