The terrorist who attacked Planned Parenthood speaks

The terrorist who attacked Planned Parenthood speaks:

The man accused of bombing a Planned Parenthood clinic in Wisconsin said on Wednesday that he did it "because they're killing babies there."

Francis Grady, 50, spoke to reporters who were covering his first appearance in federal court since the Sunday night attack. The Green Bay Press-Gazette posted video of him walking through the courthouse with a short clip of him speaking to reporters outside.

"There was no bomb," Grady said. "It was gasoline."

A reporter asked why Grady attacked the clinic.

"Because they're killing babies there," he responded.

If babies were really being killed, don't you think Mr Hero would do something drastic to save those babies? Not just make some lameass gasoline bomb under cover of darkness? Wouldn't he or any decent human being go full balls-out Rambo if they thought babies were being killed and they knew exactly where it was happening?

Mr Grady has proven himself to be a coward or a liar. Which is it, Francis?

most DUers try not to use variations of that term out of respect for mentally disabled and their families

And from what I have learned, that is a problem.

Only the govt should have access to such a material. Me and you might kill someone with it.

Only way to protect each other is to either ban access to it, or make sure we have someone in government checking our ID's and making sure we 'need' it when we buy it.

I mean, really, do you want someone who has ever had any mental issues being able to purchase gas and then make it into a bomb???

It's not the people who cause problems, it is items that do (that is what I was saying I have learned here)

I always carry a full bottle and a lighter.

You never know when a mentally deranged permit holder might decide to profile you.

They change their mind pretty quick after getting doused with a liter of gasoline.

Aside from him being a terrorist, there is also a very high creep factor with his "they are killing babies in there" comment.

there is a lot more going on with this guy.
