Conservative "pro-life" scumbags have found a foe worthy of them: a 66-year-old art school graduate. This is the extent of their courage and moral fortitude.
The right wants everyone that doesn't fall in lock step to die.
Very disgusting to see. Glad tributes are there.
"a lethal force encounter"
That's a new one.
- Gotta practice that passive language to avoid laying blame anywhere. Wouldn't want to step in it themselves, right?

  "It to have been stepped in", surely.
  "It" to have been involved "in an encounter which ended up involving stepping".
Shot and killed a mother of nine. Pathetic coward.
