Scott Roeder sentenced to a hard 50. He won’t be eligible for parole for 50 years. It’s likely he’ll die in prison.
Good.
In celebration please give money to any of several pro-choice organizations:
http://www.plannedparenthood.org/ppgnw/ – Planned Parenthood of the PNW
http://www.prochoicewashington.org/ – NARAL
http://www.prochoice.org/ – National Abortion Federation
http://www.medicalstudentsforchoice.org/index.php?page=support – Medical Students for Choice
Even if you yourself would never get an abortion, please recognize that it isn’t a choice anyone else can make for you, and keep abortion legal. It saves lives.
And please pressure your legislators to press to have people like Roeder declared domestic terrorists. Because that’s what they are. They frequently picket clinics that don’t even DO abortions. They are about punishing women, not saving babies. Because if they wanted to save babies they’d be pushing for things like more contraception, healthcare for children, more of a safety net, education… But they don’t. And that should tell you all you need to know.
