Police in Grand Chute, Wis., are trying to discover who set off a homemade bomb at the city's Planned Parenthood clinic Sunday night.

This comes just before the Republican primary Tuesday. My bet is that this was a political statement, but who made it? Answer the poll.

Article is here.

This is why we have police and stuff, to find stuff like this out. I will wait for them before rushing to judgement.
 
I hate news like this :(.
 
I believe it was most likely a right wing freak... But we cant be fro sure right now..

I agree. As heated as this issue is, this could have been a false flag operation by some Liberal group.

That would be the least likely chance. However some will make that claim for real soon.

So Ill just toss out the blame grenade so my post is a total **** disturber---gogo gadget politicization.

Ignorant assumption police called, they want to beat you like a rented mule. We have zero facts as yet. Play your little blame game after there is a suspect.
 
If anything, an individual did this and not an ideology. Let's not go any further than that.
 
This kind of stuff always pisses me off. I hope they are able to track down the asshole who did this.

I couldn't decipher half of this post, but here's my comment on the part I could understand: considering that most of the people vehemently opposed to PP are right wingers, guessing that this was a right wing freak is a pretty good guess just like guessing that someone who bombed a meat plant (in a hypothetical situation) is a left wing freak.

In other words, calm down.

And what if a PP supporter did it in order to make anti-PP'ers look bad? This is a possibility. The bomb was set to go off when nobody was at the building, and nobody was hurt. Anti-abortion nuts have a long and well established history of setting off their bombs so that people get killed by them, which tells me that there is something not quite right about this bombing.

It is a possibility. There are many possibilities, but like I said, assuming it's a right wing freak is a good guess, and for that reason, it's a guess not worthy of OC's belligerent, nearly unintelligible reaction. As far as the pattern of anti-abortion bombings, I don't know how much the timing of the bombing really means. It could have been just for intimidation.

As a general note to the thread, I understand the whole "don't come to conclusions without all the info" sentiment, but there's no problem with developing a hypothesis and shutting down certain hypotheses because you don't like them is just as bad as coming to conclusions without all the info.

What? Half of your post literally made no sense.
And i guess im sorry for answering the question based on past bombing and crimes that happen to PP.
 
Hope nobody was hurt.

It is less likely, but we can't know what we don't know. Either way, he/she/they appear to have the decency to do so when no one was present.

Wasn't there some legislator in Texas I think some years ago who shot himself to claim a terrorist group did it - only to get caught? Arson can be malicious by some outside person or as an insurance claim, to cover a crime etc. It is likely that was an anti-abortion action, but we can't know that until we do - if ever. I hope they catch whoever it was. If so, I would cut some slack in sentencing if appears he/she/they deliberately avoided the potential of someone getting hurt.

I think Zimmerman did it
 
Maybe the clinic was trying to commit suicide, did anyone think of that possibility?
 
What I don't understand is... why the hell would you have an issue with an organization trying to PREVENT unready teens from being parents and causing a lifetime of hardship for the baby? Secondly, who the hell BOMBS the place? Regardless of who did it, they obviously have some issues...

There's far more right wing extremist violence than left wing here in the US. My two cents.

IT all depends on which violence you're attuned to viewing / believing as well as your definition of "right wing" and "left wing". :shrug:

Well, the most active in terms of violence right-wing extremists are the violent anti-abortion movement and the racist white power groups. I just can't really think of any other groups that would be on the left-spectrum that even begin to have a comparable body count. Even going back to the 60's, the Weatherman seem to be the last extremist leftist group to really have multiple murders. The ELF/ALF hasn't killed anybody. I dunno, who else is there on the far-left that can really compare? Do you know of anybody?

As if the list of suspects is all that long. :roll:
 
Bombers are a odd bunch, the explosive device ones are mixed on people's death or injury and when no one is present. Not every deadly bombing was meant to be fatal. I don't think you can easily say much about who made this bomb by the absence of 'soft targets' in the blast area. The size points to amateur, too small to do much damage, size does matter in blast type weapons.

A trend is detectable between the attackers, be it bomb, firearm or vehicle and strong religious beliefs joined with strong promotion of anti-abortion activities in the area. As far as I can find, and please lets have some others do some checking, there has not been one instance of pro-abortion supporters killing, bombing or burning a clinic.

My thought on that is the women coming to such a clinic are scared/nervous enough as it is, ANY show of force will deter women from using the clinic so it does seem counterproductive to create more fear and tension if you side with a woman's right to choose.

It will be interesting to see how this shakes out, I didn't vote in the poll.

From the 1970's:

United Freedom Front
M19CO
Don't forget the BLA (Black Liberation Army)
Black Panthers, New Black Panther Party (modern variant)

Recent organizaitons? Very few like the Animal Liberation Front / Earth Liberation Front tend to be firebugs. Most tend to be invdividuals on both sides of the violence. Example: James Von Brunn.
