[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have professional and personal reasons to really loathe the insurance industry but I still am very disturbed by the reaction-not the jokes but the people actually thinking it’s justified. This type of thinking is how we get people shooting docs who perform abortions. This isn’t the way, folks. [/quote]

1) we’ve already had abortion doctors getting shot for decades. That horse is so far out of the barn it’s now holding kid’s craft projects together on thousands of refrigerators around the country.

2) it’s extremely telling that the very first reactions among corporate leadership wasn’t [i]“hey wow, people are really upset at us - maybe we need to re-examine our ethics and the way we do business[/i]”, [b]but instead it was[/b] “[i]I need a fully armored Mercedes and a 6-man protection team composed of former SEAL operators, armed with submachineguns to watch over me 24/7/365[/i]”.  This was the EXACT wrong reaction for corporate America - and this reaction shows why this stuff probably needs to happen a few more times.

I think if we as a society decide we aren’t going to have a bright line about murdering people who we feel are unethical we will see a lot more abortion providers killed.  No argument from me that the corporate response is both idiotic and infuriating. [/quote]

You are clearly unaware of violence perpetrated against reproductive care providers and staff, PPFA facilities, etc for at least four decades. There was a firebombing in my hometown. That line was crossed a long time ago with pretty much zilch push back from GOP leadership. [/quote]
