An HIV-positive Macomb County man is facing charges created under Michigan’s 2004 terrorism laws for biting another man in a neighborhood scuffle. That, HIV advocates, state lawmakers and legal experts say is “cowardly” and “nonsense” and increases ignorance and stigma surrounding the virus.
. . . . .
"Law and Order" anti-choice nonsense, with clips! Also, the laws and ethics regarding fertility treatments, and questions about whether or not to vaccinate boys for HPV.
. . . . .
Why is the man who murdered Dr. Tiller being allowed to give interviews from jail?
. . . . .
The man who shot a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Museum in D.C. was labeled by the FBI as a domestic terrorist, yet Scott Roeder, who assassinated Dr. George Tiller and who has been associated with a range of anti-choice groups that engage in violent rhetoric and clinic blockades has not. Should he be charged as a domestic terrorist? Many in the pro-choice community think the ultimate costs of doing so may outweigh the benefits.
. . . . .
Violence is inherent to the pro-life movement in the way that it was inherent to the preservation of segregation in the South.
. . . . .
In response to terrorist attacks in Mumbai, more power will be vested in state machinery to be better prepared for a similar crisis in the future. That very same power can be used to exploit women.
. . . . .
Tiffany Campbell of South Dakota talks about her activism against the abortion ban, and how legal abortion allowed her to have her baby. Also: debate analysis, and the question of Sarah Palin and feminism.
. . . . .
Joe Scarborough has a good point about being able to criticize Obama without charges of racism. He also has the opportunity to prove his point right now.
. . . . .
Yet another supporter of anti-choice terrorism has been linked to the campaign of Sen. John McCain. America is learning what women at health clinics around the country have known for a while, anti-choice protesters are not peaceful.

If a bomb is placed in the parking lot of a building - and it's the parking lot of an abortion clinic - can anyone hear about it? That depends.
