| the FBI also considers abortion clinic
| violence to be acts of domestic terrorism
I was referring to the feeling I get from (generic) law enforcement in the US that "1 animal rights 'terrorism incident' == all animal rights people are terrorists," but "1 abortion clinic bombed == just an isolated incident." I think it stems from the idea that AR activists are "a bunch of dirty hippies" or anarchists, whereas anti-abortion protesters are just fine, upstanding Christians.
Of course, none of this will be in official documents, much in the same way that DWB[1] is not an actual offence, or official department policy.
