What’s bothering you, ST? A rant on the post-Tiller murder reax

I’m bothered that there are people in this country today both on the extreme left and right who still believe that violence is a way to solve political differences, whether those people are part of some organized fringe group or act alone with encouragement from “anonymous” thugs on the Internet.
