Alabama candidate for Attorney General suggests that citizens of his state should take up arms to end abortion.

Sam McLure.

This is from a speech that Sam McLure, a candidate for Attorney General of Alabama, delivered to the Alabama Constitution Party while standing in a Bass Pro Shop: 

“McLure said that for a politician to say that he is Pro-Life but that he can do nothing about abortions because Roe v. Wade is the law of the land is a farce and a cop out. We have been manipulated by politicians who claim they are Pro-Life but don’t do anything about it. The Roe versus Wade ruling barred the State from protecting the lives of children.” 

McLure denounced Gloria Grey, who he said “makes $2 million a year to convince parents to kill their children. She owns the abortion clinic in Tuscaloosa. Since Roe v. Wade in 1972, over 500,000 Alabama children have been killed by abortion, 16 a day.” The adoption attorney in his first run for office, said that if a Pro-Life Governor, backed by a Pro-Life Attorney General and Legislature shut down abortion in the State, there is nothing anyone could do to stop it. “Sure Judge Myron Thompson would rule it unconstitutional but who would enforce it? Would President Trump intervene with troops? I don’t think so. They could cut off Federal funding,” but McLure doubted that they would. “The Second Amendment provides ‘for a well regulated militia.’ Where is Alabama’s militia? The armed people of Alabama are the militia and they would prevent a Federal officer from moving against a Pro-Life Alabama Governor who ended abortion in the State. You must be willing to die for your political beliefs and to protect your neighbor’s lives.”

Willing to die for your political beliefs is crazy enough, but this guy is also suggesting that a militia, comprised of Alabama citizens, engage in a gun battle with federal officers sent by a judge to enforce the law. 

Essentially this guy is suggesting that if citizens shot and killed officers of the court that the Federal government would not dare to do anything about it.

That is the exact same kind of thinking that sent Alaska's own domestic terrorist Schaeffer Cox to prison for 20 years, and this guy wants to be Alabama's Attorney General?

At one point in his speech McLure declared that his anti-abortion cause was similar to that of William "Braveheart" Wallace. (Because apparently Mel Gibson was fighting to take away a woman's right to choose in that movie.)

I swear these idiots are literally pouring out of the woodwork these days.

Makes me wonder if they think that because Donald Trump is in the White House that all law and order just ceased to exist or something.
