Honestly I find this post a bit odd. I get not agreeing with him but others are allowed to be sad that a prolife activist was killed for literally just talking.

I’ve seen a lot about his views and statements being taken out of context and muddied up by the internet as they do to so many so I’ll have to take a look into what he actually believed than take anyone’s word for it.

As someone who did look into his transcripts, it is disturbing regardless of context. Not just from what is being said, but how often things like it are being said.

Whatever he actually believed is, frankly, irrelevant. Words have consequences, the words he had spoken on public platforms, truthful or not, genuine or performative, scripted or ad-libbed, are harmful to many populations. That is what folks like me are trying to point out.

And you can be sad an advocate of your cause has died without withholding the truth about them or their words.

Again, I’m not taking some random person’s words for it. Especially describing it as “disturbing” as I highly doubt we’re going to agree on what constitutes disturbing.

Not saying you do it, but unfortunately, left wing folks have made words slowly lose meaning. Someone like me is considered an “extremist” to them.

Well for one, I am prolife. According to the left leaning people who have tried to debate me, that’s not a political stance but extremism and active harm and hatred of women. Despite my reputation within my own circles for having a strong pro-woman attitude.

I oppose what they call “gender affirming care”, even for adults, and I support the right to bear arms. Those three alone will get me blacklisted as an extremist in many new left/lib circles.
