Abortion pushers on clinic violence: “Destroying persons” wrong
As Cahill stated in her victim impact statement, “Destroying persons, places, property because of a difference in belief is called TERRORISM… Zachary [Klundt] systematically destroyed my property, my profession, my plans for the future and, I feel quite sure he would have destroyed me if I had happened to show up at my office when he was in it. The feeling of hate in my destroyed office was palpable.” We cannot turn a blind eye to the real terrors experienced by [abortion] providers like Susan Cahill.
Even without anti-choice laws in place in Montana limiting abortion, we are seeing access decrease around the state. Of all the compounding factors limiting abortion access (and there are many), the loss of a clinic to violence is surely the most difficult to bear.
… For over a year, more than 400 Flathead Valley residents have been without their primary healthcare provider. That, in and of itself, is a horrible circumstance which Klundt created when he destroyed the clinic. But even beyond Susan, beyond her patients, beyond Kalispell or even Montana, this destruction has an insidious effect on abortion access because it creates a climate of fear in the medical community.
[W]e need to push back against this climate of fear and create safe spaces for medical professionals to talk about abortion access, it’s legitimacy in the medical field, how we can support abortion providers, and how we can ultimately increase access to this necessary, and legal, medical procedure.

…. Or we could just talk about how to make abortion as illegal as it is unsafe and unnecessary.
We could protect Susan Cahill from violence and vandalism by simply protecting women and children from killers like Susan Cahill.
(I am going to miss the Quote of the Day feature of this blog, most of all.)

I deplore acts of violence, including vandalism, and it rightly should be prosecuted as a crime.
But PLEASE abortionists, don’t insult all of our intelligence by pretending abortion is in any way shape or form “primary healthcare.” You are only interested in making money killing children in utero. You wouldn’t prescribe a decongestant or remove even the easiest sliver from a woman’s finger. Abortion is murder, not health care. You are as far from healthcare as it is possible to get.

This is an interesting statement. The wording is really tight and precise. You’ll notice they never refer to Susan Cahill as a physician, although it does seem inferred.
Susan Cahill is a PA-C, not an MD. Yes, a PA-C is considered a clinician but definitely second tier. And her facility is listed as an abortion clinic not a primary care clinic so I’m really doubtful that anyone lost her as their primary care provider.
Committing abortions most likely brings her income up to near an MD level.
