This story pisses me off.
DAVENPORT -- A Detroit man was sentenced to five years in prison Friday for trying to burn down a women's health clinic that he mistakenly thought performed abortions.I'm beginning to think we live in a nation of hypocrites. How can we claim that we are out there trying to rid the world of terrorism when it is allowed to foster in our own backyard, and it's being punished with a penalty which amounts to nothing but a simple slap upon the wrist? How can we turn a blind eye to these Pro-Life thugs who use the same tactics and seek to instill the same fear in our population as those whom we are fighting?
David McMenemy, 46, pleaded guilty in January to arson against a business affecting interstate commerce. He could have been sentenced up to 20 years in prison.
Police said McMenemy drove to Davenport and crashed his car into the Edgerton Women's Health Care Center lobby at 4:30 a.m. on Sept. 11. He then lit a Gatorade bottle filled with gasoline on fire, walked away from his car and surrendered to firefighters.

Great question. I love the 'pro-lifers' who kill others to make their point. Asses.

Ah, well, you see, killing for the nameless one is much better than killing for that pagan God with a name the Ayrabs worship.
