I dunno; this one might have a little substance to it, the dingbat fringe of the religious right being what it is.
Is there an abortion-provider murder conspiracy in the U.S.?

As part of the promo for her October 25 special "The Assassination of Dr. Tiller", Rachel Maddow presented a series of Wanted posters on abortion providers who were subsequently murdered in the early Clinton years. At one point she asks, "Do you want to see the Wanted poster the movement put out for John Britton?" The poster "the movement" put out. Prima facie evidence of a conspiracy?
This is a striking segment. After showing the Clinton-era posters and murders, she notes that following the 2009 murder of Dr. George Tiller, the posters started turning up again, in North Carolina. Watch:

There is a video at this point and the article continues below it.
| In the segment, Maddow notes that a grand jury is now investigating whether the Tiller killing "was connected to a broader case involving radical anti-abortion activists." She adds that many abortion providers believe there is "a network of anti-abortion extremists at work |
I recall reading about the various "wanted posters" floating around some years back, but I don't remember hearing of any subsequent murders related to them. That doesn't mean they didn't happen; just that I was out of the loop as usual.
Nobody likes abortion, not you; not me; not even the women who have to have one for whatever reason. But if this theory pans out, there are a whole lot of holy-rolling, hypocritical scumbags who need to be jailed.
