This came just weeks after a vandalism attack om the same facility.

The Los Angeles Times reported, “Ventura County sheriff’s Capt. John Reilly said Thursday someone likely used a rock to shatter a window at the Planned Parenthood facility in the 1200 block of West Hillcrest Drive, then threw gasoline inside the office and ignited it.”

“You’re putting the community at risk when you’re doing something like this,” Tim Lohman, a detective with the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department, told the Los Angeles Times. “The reasons behind why the person did what they did, we don’t know. And that’s going to be part of the investigation and hopefully give us some foresight into why they targeted this specific location. Whether it’s the stuff that’s in the news recently, we don’t know.”

Congresswoman Julia Brownley (D-CA) issued a statement today saying she was “deeply troubled to learn that for the second time in two months, the Planned Parenthood clinic in Thousand Oaks has been the target of criminals and cowards who seek to intimidate healthcare workers and deny women their constitutionally-protected rights.”................

No one can tell me that the vile rhetoric and media lies that are so prevalent over PP and Republicans have not contributed to this!!

[sarge43]

1. Politically motivated terrorism n/t

[enid602]

2. reichstag

Burning of the Reichstag all over again.

[IllinoisBirdWatcher]

3. Hey, Jason Chaffetz, arson is a REAL crime. Investigate that.

Forget the fact that you and your staff cannot construct an honest chart.

Arson is a real crime.

Murder of pro-choice doctors is a real crime.

So sad that you are both deaf and blind.

[blackspade]

4. More RW domestic terrorism.

[theaocp]

5. Since it's arson,

the perps should be charged with attempted manslaughter of the firefighters. They put their lives in deliberate harm's way. Fucking cowards.

[Judi Lynn]

12. Your idea is surely worth pursuing, by all means! It makes perfect sense. n/t

[pangaia]

6. Republicans and their sympathizers are the American Taliban.

If they are not stopped NOW they will destroy everything that gets in their path.
They should be hunted down and..l I don't know.. something...

[Spitfire of ATJ]

7. Republicans smile when they see this.

[riversedge]

8. not all but enough to keep the vile talk going.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

15. I don't subscribe to the notion that they love this country but just have different ideas....

I believe they are evil. They get off on seeing their followers demonstrate their devotion this way.

[riversedge]

32. I so not subscribe to that notion either--yet they

really believe it. Makes them dangerous because it essentially gives them and excuse to do anything they want--even dangerous things like in the OP

[Spitfire of ATJ]

33. It reduces war and peace and even TORTURE to a "policy decision".

[Dont call me Shirley]

9. Religious Christian Fundamentalist Terrorists. Obama needs to get advice on how to deal with

them from Bill Clinton.

[rockfordfile]

10. Hopefully they will get the criminals

[smirkymonkey]

11. Stochastic terrorism

Eff them. These people don't care about life, they are filled with hate and intolerance.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

13. My brain is wired so differently

If something is legal, and it's that FUCKING irritating to me, I do the only logical thing. The one thing accepted by society, which is to try to get the law changed. You don't punish people exercising their rights under the law. If you can't get the law changed, well, you suck it up and live with it.

So sick of these people!

[trillion]

26. honestly that is all of our great failure as democrats, we're too friggen nice when dealing with

terrorists - the right wing ones. Theres mass right wing terrorists groups out there - all of their goups could be classified as such. All of them are hurting people and destroying our democracy. Bet not one of us would show up and burn their places down. We're law abiding citizens, and they're people who have no respect for the law.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

31. Even if I knew for a FACT I wouldn't get caught, it's just not in me to do such an evil thing.

[BlueJazz]

14. Wish I could spare the money > "5,000 dollars for info leading to the arrest of..etc"

Wonder if a Go-Fund me account could be set up for this sort of stuff??

[C Moon]

16. Start putting up video cameras so we can catch these freaks!

[TexasBushwhacker]

21. I work for a security company

A decent system can be had for a few thousand dollars. We even do zero down plans that include maintenance for a few hundred a month. There's really no excuse to not have them. Of course they won't keep the arson from happening, but it sure can help catch the perps.

[C Moon]

22. +1

[NonMetro]

17. The War On Women Just Got Violent - Again!

[workinclasszero]

18. Fox, hate radio and the republican party

put out the dog whistles, the teahaddists respond.

1+1 = 2.

It's not rocket science folks.

[riversedge]

27. In my area-nothing but hate radio.

[workinclasszero]

30. Sad to say its the same

where I'm at too. 24/7 hate and right wing propaganda.

And obviously it works.

[YOHABLO]

19. You can thank FOX and right wing talk radio heads for this.

[elmac]

20. Republicans are dismantling our democracy

one piece at a time and replacing it with a mix of fascism & religious Fanaticism.

[trillion]

25. +10000

[SunSeeker]

23. Fucking terrorists.

[trillion]

28. your emo says it all. I'm soooo pisssed right now. I have to sign off. SO F*ing pissed....

and theres zero chance I'm going to go hurt someone or destroy property or break the law. I'm not a friggen right wing violent fascist imbecile.

[trillion]

24. The conservative right are terrorists who hate our constitutional rights unless it's to carry guns

to overthrow the united states government. They hate America for our freedom. They hate womens rights and that means they hate women. Ultimately they are terrorists to everything equal fair and just. As a mass they will cheer this terrorist on.

[Lunabell]

29. So much for the "pro life" argument.

Someone might have been seriously hurt or killed. Oh yeh, it isn't about pro life it is about terror and control!
