“Of no party or clique” was The Atlantic’s founding motto. But this now clearly a lie.

His time at the Atlantic was brief, but he was not the only writer there who condones violence. Read Henry’s article here:: Valenti And Coates Prove The Atlantic’s Hypocrisy On Kevin Williamson

Incidentally, Kevin Williamson doesn’t actually condone violence. He is against the death penalty (or is, at best, “squishy” on it). His remark about hanging women who have had abortions was a characteristically provocative call for a realism on the issue (on both sides).

Oh and by the way, Kevin Williamson was born, just barely pre-Roe, to an unwed mother pre-Roe. Rather than be aborted, he was born and adopted. So the issue is personal for him.
