Well, there are organizations. What was that web site that posted a
"most wanted list". There have also been highly visible personalities
whoi have come pretty close to endorsing clinic bombing. Then there's
all the folks who seem to think Rudy? (the guy who's hiding out in the
NC mountaints) is a hero for leaving a bomb at a clinic which injured a
cop.

Constitution and Bill of Rights, I always get a bit of a laugh when
people want the US to take up the religion of the founding fathers, I
don't think they've looked in too much detail at some of those founding
fathers...).
