"This case is more appropriately viewed as an intercession on the behalf of the defenseless against he who would murder them"

So it wouldn't be proper, under any circumstances, to consider this someone attempting to impose by violence a policy that one has not yet been able to get in place through democratic means?

“..someone attempting to impose by violence a policy that one has not yet been able to get in place through democratic means?”

I guess you don't know much about the Teller case.

The PEOPLE HAVE PUT THE POLICY IN PLACE (the law) THROUGH DEMOCRATIC MEANS. Their legislature enacted a law against ALL partial-birth abortions except to save the life of the mother (which doctors will tell you is NEVER necessary! If they need to save the mother's life; a Cesarean section is the appropriate procedure.)

Corruption in the executive branch state prevented that law from being enforced against Tiller, who had blatantly ignored the will of the people and continued performing the horrid procedure at will.

Tiller was a genuine monster; how he could attend ANY church is mind-boggling.
