Debate, not terrorism

- Betsy Hood,

Regarding your June 27 letter “Terror tactics in Texas”: While the Texas filibuster regarding abortion rights may fall into the category of vigorous debate, it does not qualify as terrorism. Terrorism is when legally operated clinics are bombed, doctors are assassinat­ed and workers are maimed or killed. Let’s be careful about our terminolog­y.
