Colorado shooter politically motivated, said ‘no more baby parts’ after attacking PP
Washington Post ^ | 11/28/15 | Peter Holley, Sandhya Somashekhar, Lindsey Bever and Wesley Lowery

The gunman suspected of storming a Planned Parenthood clinic and killing a police officer and two others told the officers who arrested him “no more baby parts,’’ after being taken into custody, according to a law enforcement official.

The attack on the clinic was “definitely politically motivated,’’ the official — who has been briefed on the investigation and spoke on condition of anonymity because it is still unfolding — told The Washington Post. NBC News, which first reported the comment attributed to suspect Robert Lewis Dear, said Dear also mentioned President Obama in a range of statements to investigators that left unclear his precise motivation in targeting the clinic.

I am in the Springs, a mile or so from where this all went down. We’re not talking about dead abortionists here, as none of the staff were injured. We are talking about one dead cop and two others who we know nothing about. That is in no way justified killing, is it hoss?

What was he after, that still is not clear. There’s a difference between purposes and things not going according to plan. (FWIW, it looks like the bank robbery really was the idea and the PP involvement was an afterthought, and the guy could not have cared less about abortions.)

I don’t think it’s really as confused as some are making it out to be.

You won’t find any mention of a bank robbery or anything other than a nutjob entering PP and lighting it up. It appears to me that law enforcement caught him very early, thus focusing his attention and his fire on police. There are multiple witness statements on video both on the Gazette website and on CNN that make it pretty clear what happened. An older white guy with a ponytail and a younger black woman who was in PP when the shooting started and who’s boyfriend may be one of the unidentified dead. Have you seen them?

You can read my post yesterday if you care

My first reply was lament dead cop and his family because unlike abortion providers he was innocent

And that I suspected this was not a bellwether attack on an abortion mill

But I have noticed you seem bothered more than I about abortionists getting shot

I’m just wondering do folks here ever at any point think violence can make a point?

How much further down the road need we go?

Maybe when born adult conservatives are attacked?

It’s a vexing issue for folks and no one size fits all answer will work

I agree Cruz had to answer the loaded question as he did....why give them controversy for free

But I’m not running for office and can honestly say I don’t get too worked up about when abortionists in particular get a taste of their own medicine

Especially that Teller monster or had someone shot Kermit Gosnell

My son says this was a gender confused lefty bank robber who sought refuge in PP after failed robbery try......is that true?

Pig Pen....that was the end of the era for me though I stuck it out till Baton Rouge in 77 ....maybe their best year touring wise

Saw them 4 times that year.....Tuscaloosa was a banner show.....they did Jack Straw.....the Crimson Tide acted as roadies

I heard that Cruz was his first pick but if it came down to it in the general election he would vote for Trump.

After Dear surrendered there was a Chase employee (bank Pres?) who wanted to come to the scene and talk with LE. It was said he needed to show LE a “hatch”. This was on the scanner and the officer answered No, he couldn’t see him at that moment and to ‘keep him up there’.

So what did that Chase employee want to show him and what is a “hatch”? This was immediately after LE snagged Dear.

This is nagging at me. Anyone else recall this chatter?

I want to see tapes of the interrogation. Was he being questioned “strongly” about “baby parts”? Did that provoke the response?

Yes! Release everything, just like they have done for the Waco Biker Murders....

Obama wasted no time coming out and demanding more gun control.

How did this guy end up moving from NC to Colorado? So many questions, so few answers. I don’t look for conspiracies, but this is pretty strange.

Sometimes I think the government really does find people to control for their own means. I guess I just need more coffee.

The problem with your liberal narrative is that the police scanner told a different tale and FReepers heard it. So did others. I’d be careful about pushing a lefty narrative on FR.

this article is fiction and propaganda
they are going to release snippets of interrogation even before ID of the victims?
really?

Strange that no family members/friends of the unidentified victims are speaking out. In fact, that NEVER happens. Were they muzzled?

I reckon that this early they are grieving and busy with the funeral home.

Facts is facts, and unproven claims of what people heard on a scanner are hardly reliable. Nothing liberal about me, but I’m not making stuff up not relying on seventh hand reports about what people heard. Got a recording, know someone who does? Yeah, didn’t think so.
