Planned Parenthood shooting suspect appears in court

Colorado Springs, Colorado (CNN)The man accused of killing three people at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs made his first court appearance Monday, wearing a padded vest and standing with his eyes closed for parts of the hearing.

A judge advised Robert Lewis Dear, 57, that he's being held on suspicion of first-degree murder, a charge that could carry a minimum penalty of life in prison or a maximum penalty of death if he's convicted. The formal filing of charges in the case, and the next hearing for Dear, is set for December 9.

Dear, who's being held without bond, faced the judge via a video feed from jail. At times, he stood with his eyes closed as the judge spoke. Wearing a white vest that authorities described as a standard-issue "safety smock," he said just a few words in answer to questions from the judge and did not enter a plea or discuss the details of the case.

We need to understand these people. What could be happening at planned parent hood clinics that could cause this man to become so angry he resorted to committing such a horrific act?

It's not what's actually happening -- it's the quite deceptive portrayal of what's happening. That's life as a Republican in a nutshell (pun intended): http://www.salon.com/2015/09/26/the_5_biggest_lies_youve_been_told_about_planned_parenthood_partner/

No, people like this shooter are the domestic, right-wing terrorists of the U.S.
