That's true. We should remember that regardless of just how influenced by the lies and political rhetoric against Planned Parenthood he was, this man represents the extreme minority wing, as do all terrorists.

But, just as we keep at eye on extremist Islamist groups that might inspire terrorist acts, in my opinion, we need to keep an eye on other extremist religious and political groups spreading messages of hate, and to stop electing politicians aligned with them. This was hardly an isolated incident of terrorism against Planned Parenthood, yet a part of our government seems to almost be encouraging these attacks. MOO.

Can you appreciate how calling people "anti-choice" simply because they oppose abortion is also part of the overall 'lies and hate?' According to the statistics I posted earlier, that is at least half the population of the U.S. being painted with that brush.

The inflammatory rhetoric is not unique to any one side of these issues.

Does schizophrenia often manifest late in life? I thought it was typically a disease that occurred much younger in men. But it seems like he was, by all accounts, a fairly normal guy for most of his life, and only became more isolated and radicalized in the last decade or so. IMO, that's becoming a rather common profile lately.

IMO, it is always "there" but how it maifests , like any other illiness varies. I ampondering if some of this info is not , 30 years ago what he was telling people when he met them but not based in reality, or exaggerated IMO

delusionial I graduated from ..............

That he said "baby parts" is what gives it away IMO. I've never heard that from an anti-choice crusader before those videos were released. He didn't say "No more dead babies."

And what if he hadn't seen those videos?
RSBM

Where in the heck was he watching videos ? Library, perhaps ?
His ... living 'facilities' did not appear to have internet access.

So, he fixated on one component that made him enraged.
Almost like he was looking for an excuse to go on a rampage.
In my opinion.

As for myself --Not being one to believe every video that comes out without verification ; I am not going to say these videos are truthful and exact.
Will try not to examine more theories about these video clips as I didn't want to get too off-track.
:moo:

I'm trying to understand how Dear being the son of a WWII veteran is somehow tied to his actions. Being a vet doesn't make a person raise their children to be violent decades later.

JMO

I think the post was more like adding to the story, as oppessed to any correlation to his actions...... We can all read the same article , and if asked one highlight , it would be different for eac of us ..

Data like "fills" in where each of us are stilling trying to understand one angle of the story.

For me, the most helpful was the cop in the interview that said he was rambling on and on ... and said the 4 word phrase once. In the middle of a rant that leads me to ......................

IMO he was very disorganized ........in his mind

COLORADO SPRINGS — Jennifer Markovsky was one of the three people killed in a shooting spree at a Planned Parenthood clinic here Friday, her father told The Denver Post on Sunday.

John Ah-King said his daughter, a 36-year-old married mother of two, was accompanying a friend to the clinic when she was killed.

"She was the most lovable person," Ah-King said from his home in Hawaii. "So kind-hearted, just always there when I needed her.

I haven't seen anything official other than these 2 links, this one and the one from Hawaii.

The problem I have is I don't see how pointing out the fact that Dear's father was a WWII vet "adds to the story."

I've made my point as clear as I can. I hope that everyone understands.

No more posts from me on this subject.

Was it reported that he had schizophrenia? I keep seeing it mentioned in this thread but I am not exactly sure why people are talking about schizophrenia with this case. (And yes, it usually shows up in late teens/early adult years.)

Swasey was originally from Melrose, Massachusetts, where Police Chief Michael Lyle said he dedicated much of his life to helping others.

He moved to Colorado in the 1980s to pursue competitive figure skater, his father told the Boston Globe. He became a police officer six years ago, around the time his daughter was born, 73-year-old David Swasey said.


Former figure skating champion Nancy Kerrigan remembers the Colorado police officer who was killed in a shooting at a Planned Parenthood clinic as loyal, caring and a true friend.

She told media outlets that Garrett Swasey was "one of my best friends" as they grew up together practicing figure skating in Melrose, Massachusetts. Before he became a police officer, Swasey was a junior national couples ice dancing champion.
