Kansas Abortionist George Tiller was shot today as he was going to Church.

No matter how you cut it, the perpetrators and abettors of abortion are responsible for this.

Exactly. Unless this turns out to have nothing to do with Tiller's "business", which is incredibly unlikely, Tiller's profession made him a target.

Look I'll be honest, I see both sides. A side of me wanted to break his neck with my owntwo aging but still strong hands. The rational side of me usually wins out these days but in my misspent youth it was a different story.

Rationally I see this as doing way more harm than good.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

[clintonh8r]

I’m not. Not at all. But thanks for caring.

[Arkinsaw]

I don't think it hurts the movement.

Wishful thinking.

Most people are willing to at least contemplate a message of love and life. A message of love and life is hard for opponents to make fun of and sneers against a message of love and life make the opponent look mean-spirited.

When someone assassinates someone, whatever their message was is lost in their action. Minds slam shut. Their message is tainted by their evil action. Their movement is associated with their action...and not the message.

The militia movement is an example. They went from liberty loving survivalists to the people who spawned the evil baby-killing Timothy McVeigh. Their movement stopped dead in its tracks at that point.

The term "Pro-Life assassin" will not ring true to anybody if they actually think about it.

If the fears are true about this being motivated by abortion....it is not good for the Pro-Life people who spend time trying to get out a "Pro-Life" message. We want people to think of innocent babies when they hear "Pro-Life"....not assassins and bombers.

[Rannug]

Or possibly a professional hit man, hired by someone for whatever reason.

[EternalVigilance]

Of course he is. But the breakdown of the rule of law is inevitable when the most extreme form of lawlessness - the wanton butchery of the most defenseless among us - is said to be “legal,” and protected. It’s only a matter of time until all law has lost its meaning, and the wheels completely come off our civilization.

Liberty is the ultimate casualty of the loss of a nation’s reverence for the Creator, and respect for the unalienable right to life of the innocent person who was made in His image.

[livius]

No matter how you cut it, the perpetrators and abettors of abortion are responsible for this.

I agree. All legal means of preventing or restricting abortion are regularly blocked by the abortion lobby and the government, which on top of that actually privileges abortionists by restricting the First Amendment rights of protestors.

That said, this is a terrible thing because it is going to be used to crack down on pro-life people even harder.

[EveningStar]

This is a sick, vile thread. It should be pulled.

[metmom]

Damn. This will only make a martyr of Tiller and allow the media to portray pro-lifers as crazy and dangerous.

Kind of ironic, isn't it? One person shoots Tiller and kills him and the liberals will paint the whole pro-life movement as domestic terrorists.

Tiller slaughtered how many babies in some of the more gruesome ways a human being can die, and he's the martyr.

Funny how people have no sympathy for a serial killer who murders pretty young college freshmen or young children, but they do for someone who dismembers, scalds to death, or sucks the brains out of pre-born babies.

I will not shed a tear for him if he feels for eternity all the pain he's inflicted on those poor babies and their mothers.

[betty boop]

Until such time as anarchy prevails, this is not the right behavior. Shooting causes more shooting.

Jeepers, Lazamataz, but from where I sit, it looks pretty clear to me that anarchy already does prevail. A major part of the problem is that most people nowadays cannot tell the difference between what is (allegedly) "lawful" and what justice requires.

Just because outright, objective infanticide has been "legalized" (e.g., late-term abortion, refusal to protect born-alive infants), are we then required to say that infanticide is "just?"

When the law no longer serves justice, then it seems pretty clear to me that a state of de facto anarchy already exists. JMHO FWIW.

[jwalsh07]

We attend one near us from time to time, and in Bible study, the pastor's wife would rave about why abortion was a GOOD thing.

Lots of lightening strikes from AGW in your neck of the woods?

[mass55th]

Hadn’t heard about that trial. What was the verdict?

[wagglebee]

Don’t mischaracterize the movement you purport to understand. It’s the pro-innocent-life movement.

Are you endorsing vigilantism?

[whatisthetruth]

Thank God that George Tiller will not be able to murder any more innocent babies

Here! Here!

[wagglebee]

He was found not guilty.

[buccaneer81]

Sorry, Charlie. You are in a very small minority.

[livius]

If you will read through the thread, you’ll see that the vast majority of posters are not happy about this and are arguing with the people who are.

[oldfart]

A conspiracy such as would be needed for this to work is highly unlikely but one has to wonder how the pro-abortion Obama forces could profit from this.

[freeplancer]

I bet you are sad that you can’t blame the Mormon church for this one, huh?

[metmom]

Yes, here on Fox.....
