A 25-year-old self-described “pro-mortalist” has been identified as the attacker who detonated a car bomb outside a fertility clinic in Palm Springs Saturday — killing himself and injuring four other people, according to sources.
Guy Edward Bartkus, of Twentynine Palms, is believed to have detonated an explosive device in his car outside the American Reproductive Centers, which performs IVF treatments, egg collections and other procedures, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Bartkus allegedly described his fanatical pro-death beliefs in written and recorded manifestos as being against bringing people into the world without their consent to spare them from future suffering, KCAL news reported.
On Saturday, FBI agents swarmed his home and evacuated the neighborhood, declaring it a “blast zone” over concerns that he could have left explosives behind, ABC7 reported.

what the hell is a "pro mortalist"????
No one is born giving consent. Mental.
“No one is born giving consent.”
Reminds me of the old Benny Hill joke...
Person 1: “I didn’t ask to be born”
Person 2: “Well you didn’t want to stay where you were now did you?”
In a more sane time period, people like these would have been in mental hospitals.
Guess I’m missing something. Forgot to ask Bill and Katy if they wanted to be born. Just assumed their answer was YES. Silly me.
To paraphrase Yogi Berra, 90 percent of political fanatism is half mental.
“Bartkus allegedly described his fanatical pro-death beliefs in written and recorded manifestos”
HE HAD A MANIFESTO!!! HOW LONG BEFORE THE FBI LETS US SEE IT?
and yes Tom Tetroxide, a manifesto makes him a Demorat!
“It is best never to have been born. But who among us has such luck? One in a million, perhaps.”
—Alfred Polgar (quoted in Poor H. Allen Smith’s Almanac)
You do ask to be born and even to choose your parents, according to Mormons. At least that is how I understand their worldview.
So basically your typical far left kook who hates babies
“No one is born giving consent.”
correct.
Any action a person takes that leads to the birth of someone is an action that condemns that someone to death.
Also correct, even if the death occurs 100 years after the birth.
Again. He did not do this in isolation. Someone planted a seed in his mind, others fertilized it.
If we don’t plant good seeds, others will plant.
Strange but interesting concept...
“No one is born giving consent.”
How do you know that?
He’s anti-life, but couldn’t simply kill himself to resolve his issue.
It’s almost guaranteed he was on meds...
I strongly suspect that explosive device went off prematurely.
Sounds like he found a cure.
“He’s anti-life, but couldn’t simply kill himself to resolve his issue”
I think he did....more than likely by accident.
A death cultist.
