Murder is murder, and Mr. Hill is a murderer. I hope that Mr. Hill puts his soul in order and repents his evil before his execution.

Reading this article, I'm reminded how the David Gunn murder made me aware of media bias. I was visiting my family in Chicago at the time, and the Chicago Tribune reported how 1100 anti-abortion groups had comdemned the murder, and one group of wackjobs in Virginia had applauded it. I then returned to Albany, NY, in time to read the same story in the Albany paper - with the condemnations omitted and the wackjobs emphasized.

It's amazing how your eyes open up when you realize you've been lied to - within a year I went from on-the-fence on abortion to pro-life.

"It’s time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground
Send ’em all to their maker and he’ll settle ’em down"

Amen, another wacko off the streets permanently. I'm pleased to see that most Pro-Life groups do not support this kind of 'right to kill for my beliefs' nonsense which would be more appropriate to Bin Laden.

I am a bit confused, here to be honest.

Historically, I believe, the use of deadly force has been condoned in the prevention of murder.

If abortion is murder, and I think it is, than what degree of force is justified in the prevention of those murders?

We can't have it both ways. Not logically anyhow. Either abortion is murder and needs to be prevented, or it's not and we have no business calling it baby-killing.
