<p>Smusher, I predicted that you would not condemn the murderer of Dr. George Tiller, and that you would continue to attack the Wesleyan students who support Planned Parenthood, and my theory was correct.</p>
<p>And by the way, you are posting on a board for people interested in Wesleyan University. I am here to defend Wesleyan students’ right to exercise their freedom of speech as American citizens. Why are you here??</p>
<p>For your information, my family and I have been patients at Planned Parenthood several times over the last 35 years, and we are very well-informed about their excellent services, kind and sensitive medical personnel and their careful use of funds. Planned Parenthood is a model for low-cost, non-profit community medicine. You know it and I know it. The Wesleyan students also know it and this is the basis for their wonderful campaign to support Planned Parenthood.</p>
<p>Before you bash innocent Wesleyan students or people in the community like me who have benefited from the outstanding work of Planned Parenthood and who also condemn heinous crimes against innocent victims of barbarians like Scott Roeder, I suggest you chill and ask yourself why you feel the need to rant against the rights of your fellow Americans who are merely exercising our freedom of speech under the U.S. Constitution. And while you are in church this morning, please say a prayer for the soul of Dr. George Tiller, a martyr for a woman’s right to choose and a modern American hero.</p>
<p>One other thing: Keep in mind that these attacks against constitutionally-guaranteed women’s reproductive rights only stiffen the resolve of Wesleyan students and alumni. I suggest that you find another audience that might be intimidated more easily.</p>
