There is a logic flaw here.  One there is no grey area about the
morality of bombing a building, possibly murdering real human
beings (not blobs), etc.  Two would the people who are bombing
buildings find other targets if there were no more clinics to
bomb?  Yet the argument that was advanced was that if there were
no clinics, there would still a need and a way to have abortions.
