They take an idea that someone states a position on abortion, and then try to commit mass murder as this is their solution. None of that really has anything to do with Christianity, but someone's warped sense of morals. Similarly if a non believer bombed a church, I couldn't then rationally associate them with you because you are also a non believer.
Religion is used to justify atrocities, sure. It's an easy target. It isn't a rational justification.
