it's unthinkable -- perhaps almost maddening -- that slaughtering babies is not only legal, but big business, condoned self-righteously.

but you have to stay inside the lines.

Some information about Randall Terry... (more at the link).

Randall A. Terry (born 1959) is an American activist. A political conservative, Terry founded the pro-life organization Operation Rescue, famous for group-blockading the entrances of abortion clinics, in 1987, and led the group until 1991.[1] He has been arrested more than 40 times, most recently for protesting the commencement visit at the University of Notre Dame by President Barack Obama, who is pro-choice, by defying a court order to stay off the school's property.

In 2003, Randall Terry founded the Society for Truth and Justice and conducted a program called Operation Witness. He was the spokesman for the Schindler family in the Terri Schiavo case. In 2006, he unsuccessfully ran as a Republican for state senator of Florida's eighth district.

I once had an argument with Mr. Terry over the use of juveniles, in dangerous protest situations.

This argument was BEFORE Scott Pelly told the world that I had thrown kids in the street, in front of Tiller's clinic.

FALSE! I had been trying to get kids to crawl out from under a car, in front of the driveway to the clinic!

Anyway, Randall Terry does not seem to care about end results, or the PR consequences, or the danger involved in some of his tactics.

He looked pretty isolated at the March for Life - he was shilling some book or DVD of his with a bullhorn on the sidewalk across from the Supreme Court, but very few people approached him in the hour or so I was standing across from him.

I applaud the well meaning intentions of Randall Terry.

But.

But when his actions harm the cause; he needs to be corrected.

The comparison to John Brown is apt. Funny how people who condemn anti-abortion violence consider anti-slavery violence to have been heroic.

Stupid lefties think if a time machine were to whip John Brown into our time that he'd be a lefty. I say drop him in the middle of San Francisco and let's see how "left wing" he would be.

Operation Rescue goes all Wobbly-Kneed?

Christ didn’t demand non-violence from his disciples:

Luke 22:35-38
35: And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
36: Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
37: For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
38: And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

The Child murderer would have by now killed thousands more helpless children, had the Earth not been clensed of his satanic presence by Scott Roeder.

These people are deeply confused, and I’m glad my old friend Randall is taking a stand here.

There are those on this forum who will continue to defend Terry...

I'm not one of them.

Terry jumped the shark way back when....and I find him an embarrassment.

For all the good, hard working pro-lifers who shun the limelight and only care for the lives of babies, I applaud.

For Terry, who lost his way, I shudder.
He's an intelligent man who I once thought had a vision....I hope he realizes what he's become.
