ATF, Arson Investigators at Abortion Clinic Fire in Bellevue
Source: KMTV

Bellevue, NE - Investigators from the ATF--the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives--are at the scene of a fire at a controversial health clinic in Bellevue. So are arson investigators.

The agents reportedly were questioning potential witnesses in the area. Investigators were carrying items out of the building, the Carhart Health Clinic.

The clinic is owned by Dr. Leroy Carhart, known for his legal fights in support of abortion rights. He testified before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2006. Anti-abortion groups have frequently picketed the clinic.

When asked if the fire was suspicious, a spokesman for Bellevue Fire told Action 3 News: "Not at this time." He says investigators haven't had time to go through the clinic to look for a cause.

1. Churches all around here have little white crosses all over their lawns.
They have a sign that reads something like this, Roe V Wade, My death was not my choice.

I think it stirs up people and that's what they are trying to do. The kooks are ready and willing to attack the left.

4. Maybe we should add some crosses....
....for those killed by inquisitions and the like. And maybe a cross or two for the murdered doctors who also had no choice in their deaths....and they were conscious!

2. This sort of think just pisses me off.
From the article "controversial health clinic". The clinic is not controversial - it is not illegal. It is in keeping with the laws of the land.


Assholes who kill health care providers and burn things down because they are nutty, selfish, sociopaths are controversial.
