  1. This is terrible news, and a hard day for Owosso, since it looks like there were two shootings: Jim Pouillon, 63 anti-abortion activist and owner of a gravel company; and Mike Fouss, 61, of Fouss gravel. Good news to hear that they've got the murderer.

  2. So far there is no reason why they shot him. Was he shot 'just in case' because Homeland security said prolifers are domestic terrorist?

  3. And of course, the fact that the guy who killed the anti-abortion guy also killed the owner of a gravel pit kinda undercuts the theory that his "liberal" or "pro-choice" views (which themselves have yet to be reported) had anything to do with that killing, unless we're also prepared to argue that his "pro-paved driveway" views caused the killing of the other man.

    Individuals are individuals. Whether a violent person has every book put out by a foxnews "author," or the complete works of Zinn and Chomsky in his trunk, it isn't the guy or gal's politics that's to blame for the bad acts, but the degree to which the person is a nut or evil.

    A whole lotta people watch & read the ravings of Beck on one end, or Chomsky on the other, but don't become violent. Sure, details like a perp's (or a victim's) political or social ideology are interesting, but they should never be confused with causation.

  5. When considering Dave's opinion on what role ideology plays in murder, I like to keep in mind that he advocates genocide:

    "I say kill them all and let Allah sort them out."
