I wouldn't even be shocked if some leftist group ordered the hit on Tiller to create a backlash against the pro-life movement, which has clearly been winning in the polls of late. My guess is that pro-deathers wouldn't mind sacrificing one of their more extreme members for political gain.
Was I playing God? I had no idea. I thought I was wishing that he rot in hell along with every mother who ever allowed the man to take her child's life.
Morally you are right, but legally, there are degrees of murder and degrees of culpability:

ding ding ding.
Big trouble ahead....
I'm not excusing the killer. But Tiller had a whole lifetime to repent. And if he did not repent, that was his choice. The Bible is pretty clear on this. Nobody knows the day or the hour of our death, except God. Therefore, it is unwise to go walking around in a state of mortal sin.
And that's also why Catholics ask Mary to "pray for us now and at the hour of our death."
God is merciful. He extends His mercy to all. I am sure that Tiller has had many opportunities to repent. And perhaps he did repent at the last. But for everyone, the time runs out, sooner or later.
Also I could see Obama linking Tiller’s assassination with Sarah Palin’s pro-life speech in Evansville in an attempt to marginalize her pr0-life views and perhaps accuse her views of causing Tiller’s death.
Remember Obama sees everything through a political lens.
Then stop reading them.
If you’re NOT praying for Hitler, Pol Pot, even Satan, you obviously missed the Christ’s message.
I agree. My first thought when I read this story was that the left have sacrificed one of their own to push another agenda.
It will.
Not saying this is a conspiracy but just the same it is what it is.
It is an opportunity that the Dems will cynically exploit. No conspiracy necessary, any more than it was necessary in Paul Wellstone's death.
Obama and Sibelius are probably doing the Happy Dance right about now.
Good ole Karma! What goes around comes around.
For all we know; someone other than a pro life did it.
Pharaoh hardened his heart.
Pharaoh hardened his heart.
Pharaoh hardened his heart.
God hardened Pharaoh’s heart.
I just did a quick drive by of DU. It took all of 5 posts before someone commented that we are celebrating here at FR.
And less than that for them to smear the whole *right wing* movement as hypocrites.
Time to go disinfect the computer....
Which makes it suspicious. And do they have the killer?
Removing trash is all of our business.
