We’ve only known that religious right wingers were murderous bigots for decades now.

Were these dolts wringing their hands about it now not paying attention to all those murdered abortion doctors? The bombed clinics? McVeigh and Eric Rudolph? That idiot Weaver at Ruby Ridge, and Koresh at Waco? The KKK and all the other right wing terror groups? The scumbags shooting up Jewish sites all over the country—even the Holocaust Museum?

Where the FUCK have they been not to notice it long before now?
