Summary: Paul Ross Evans, 27, was charged Friday, April 27, 2007, in Austin, Texas, with use of weapons of mass destruction and the manufacture of explosive material, in connection with an explosive device found earlier this week at an Austin clinic that performs abortions.
Basically, disgruntled white guy--acting on rhetoric and conviction by pro-forced-birthers--builds an IRA style anti-personnel device and plants it in the parking lot, hoping to injure or kill women and the doctors who take care of them. "Had the bomb detonated, it could have injured people 100 feet away, police said."
Yet, even though the Joint Terrorism task force was called out, no one is calling this domestic terrorism.
Fifty years from now historians are unlikely to write, “In the mid-nineties, politicians and talk-show radio hosts created an atmosphere of poisonous hatred against the national government. Also, in a completely unrelated development, somebody blew up the federal office building in Oklahoma City.”
Same thing, different names.
