====================================================
  I am *personally* opposed to killing abortionists.
However, inasmuch as my personal opposition to this
practice is rooted in a *sectarian* (Catholic)
religious belief in the sanctity of human life, I am
unwilling to *impose* it on others who may, as a
matter of conscience, take a different view.
   
  Of course, I am *entirely* in favor of policies
aimed at removing the *root causes* of violence
against abortionists. Indeed, I would go so far as
to support *mandatory* one-week waiting periods, and
even nonjudgmental counselling, for people who are
contemplating the *choice* of killing abortionists.
I believe in policies that reduce the urgent need
some people feel to kill abortionists while, at the
same time, respecting the rights of conscience of
my fellow citizens who believe that the killing of
abortionists is sometimes a tragic necessity
- not a good, but a lesser evil. In short, I am
moderately pro-choice.
