Suhhh-weeeet! I wish this had played instead every time I was Rickrolled. I mean that one and only time. Because it only happened once.

True story.

This site provides info & action items for those of us who prefer bedside activism to making actual use of logic and debate ;)

I wondered what will happen because it seems like you're making a (fairly bleak) prediction.

If not sites like HuffPo, who do you mean by "the progressive blogosphere"?

Tough call for major media outlets and the blogosphere. I wonder, if they address the possibility (likelihood, even) of worse backlash from anti-abortion "activists" head-on, as you do here, is that backlash more or less likely to be realized? Does addressing the possibility preemptively extinguish violence by predicting it, or does that somehow pave a path for more brutality?

How would you approach the subject if you were, say, the Huffington Post?

Maybe the possibility of more violence is implicit in all spectacular acts of violence. But I think the other side, pro-choicers, will be enraged to action as well--not necessarily satisfied with Obama's and other leaders' disapproving commentary.

I guess the real questions--not that there are any between you and me--are about the truth and reality of Tiller's business (funny to think of it as a business, isn't it?).
