Why isnt the teevee telling us how Dear was radicalized by religion?

20. They would have to acknowledge that fundies are more alike than different

across religions and nations.
There's also that strong rightwing idealogical bent.

With Dear, I kept thinking of the George Tiller murder and the known connection to Operation Rescue.

Sullenger and her husband both pleaded guilty to conspiring to blow up the Alvarado Medical Center abortion clinic with a gasoline bomb.[2] Sullenger's husband was sentenced to 18 months and she was sentenced to three years by US District Judge Earl B. Gillam. Her sentence was scheduled to begin after her husband's ended so that one of them could stay at home with their daughters, then four and six-years-old.[2] Sullenger served two years in U.S. federal prison and was released in April 1990.[3]

Following completion of her sentence, Sullenger taught children at a Christian school for seven years. She was also elected to the Central Committee of the 75th District of the San Diego Republican Party.[1]

Wichita and Operation Rescue
In 2003 Sullenger moved to Wichita, Kansas where she began serving as a senior policy advisor for Operation Rescue under Troy Newman. With Newman she wrote the books Their Blood Cries Out! and Abortion Free. In 2003 she and Newman issued a statement on behalf of murderer Paul Jennings Hill, writing that his assassination of physician John Britton and his bodyguard was a "justifiable defensive action".[4] As a part of Operation Rescue, she pressured companies to cease doing business with abortion provider George Tiller, once following his wife Jeanne to a cleaning company at a strip mall and taking her picture. Sullenger also participated in protests at the homes of clinic workers.[5]

Link to Tiller assassination
In 2009 Sullenger drew attention following the trial of Scott Roeder, the anti-abortion activist who assassinated Wichita physician George Tiller. Sullenger initially denied any contact with Roeder, but after her name and phone number were discovered on the dashboard of his car, she revealed that she had kept him informed of Tiller's scheduled court dates.[6][7] Rachel Maddow ran an expose covering an alleged "unholy alliance" between Sullenger and Roeder.[8] Jacob M. Appel has highlighted Sullenger's violent history in his efforts to enact mandatory lifelong registration for perpetrations of crimes against abortion clinics.[9]

Sullenger serves as director of Kansans for Truth in Politics, a social conservative activist group.
