That is the first bold and interesting thing you have said in two days of battling. You are on much better ground RE: Lincoln with such a stance.

Know only that I am a free thinker and am not waiting to spring the PC police on you.

Do you believe in violating property rights to achieve your end?

Is your dislike for say an Eric Rudolph based on pragamatism (his actions hurt the political cause, but killing abortionists is not all bad) or because it's wrong to commit a sin to fight a sin?

I believe that the first inalienable right is the right to life. It superceeds all other rights. The second is liberty. The third is property. In that order. Get the picture.

That being said, as long as legalized abortion is the law of the land, there is nothing to be gained from killing abortionists. When it is finally outlawed, I would have no problem with performing an abortion being named a capital offense. I make no distinction between an unborn human being and one a few months older.

All of that being said, it is tangential and irrelevant. As I pointed out, there is nothing to be gained by fighting a guerilla campaign against doctors who perform abortions. As long as it is legal, it will continue to go on. There was plenty to be gained from participating in the Underground Railroad, because plenty of slaves gained their freedom and no one took their place. That is why the abortion debate does not make a useful analogy to slavery. Until you accept the fact that abolishing slavery was one of the most important things ever done by in this country anything else you have to say is either ignorant or irrelevant.
