Tiller says he preforms free abortions during the year that aren't publicized, and has signed up for the Sedgwick County program offering free health care for disadvantaged people. A first trimester abortion costs about $325.00.
His announcement of the free abortions has galvanized anti-abortion forces, who say people from around the country have called to say they plan to come to Wichita today to for protests and vigils outside his clinic.
"Abortions are not something to hand away like candy at Halloween, abortions are not something like free baloons at a circus," said Troy Newman one of the national leaders for Operation Save America. "Abortions are killing children. Wake up, wake up."
El Dorado pastor Daniel Thompson said abortion opponents are appealing to the people of Wichita to take a "final stand" against Tiller and his abortions.
"This is just another of one of George Tiller's publicity stunts performed at the expense of women and their babies, merely for his own personal profit," said Joan Hawkins, director of Kansans for Life. "What he is losing in revenue today he is more than making up with all the attention from the media."
BUT, the talk about murdering the murderers has to stop. The THOUGHT of it has to stop. We need to leave this in God's hands. He's so much bigger than the whole picture. I know Jesus cries as He welcomes each of these aborted babies into His arms. But remember, the day is coming, and it's coming soon (IMHO) when He'll return and woooooboy....I don't want to be NEAR one of these abortionists when He's near them.
JR's going to end up in trouble if this kind of talk continues. I don't want that, I want the freedom to try to pursuade some fence sitters. I realize that there's a lot of new posters and as we all imagine, they're here for trouble. It's so easy to get caught up in the heat of the debate. Especially when these bozo's egg us on. But please, look at the bigger picture.
Vengeance IS the Lord's.
Have a great Lord's Day tomorrow. Please don't be angry with me for this post...I just get afraid for US when I read stuff like this.
Do you really think I advocate that or are you just being a jerk?
Including six year old kids?
Naahh...it'd be even funnier if a bunch of fundies went there and started speaking in tongues, fake fainting, playing with snakes, smacking people in the forehead and "healing" them, screaming into the fire, quoting verse, and having sex with their children...
...that would be funny.....
If they burned a couple witches...it'd be even cooler...'specially if they were naked...
What brought you to that conclusion? All I said about #18 was that the author of #18 had a very clear opinion about the righteousness of murdering abortion providers.
I have not stated my opinion about the issue but I will: Murdering an abortion provider is just as wrong as murdering Mother Theresa.
This is a nice warning and all of the cowards among us will heed your words. I dont know if this happening to anyone so its unsubstantiated but, I would rather be the target than these babies. Here I am Goliath Fresh meat. Thats right, come and get it!!
People without souls should be unamused.
No, Jeff. You know that's not what I meant.
Many have and many are bearing the burden.
Joe Scheidler left his business calling card with a receptionist in an abortion clinic -- his business card read: Choose Life.
He was accused in a a RICO case filed by NOW of threatening the clinic "director" because of this message that was printed on his business card.
At what age would you (did you) sit down with Brad, show him the pictures and explain to him the meaning?
At what age would you (did you) gather up Brad's friends and show them the pictures and explain to them the meaning?
You did say everyone must see these images.
Jeff, I also believe that homosexuality is wrong. And the public schools in CA are now going to teach KINDERGARTENERS this....do you think THAT'S right? At that point, I DO need to talk to Brad about it. Sad, isn't it, that a child is being forced to grow up so early. But hey, at least he wasn't killed in the womb.
I'm rambling. I'm sorry. Now, back to why you're mad at ME......(please).
Oh, and I can only assume that you're an advocate of baby killing, right?
You can assume no such thing. Is it not possible to be pro-life and object to the public display of those pictures? Is it not possible to be pro-RKBA and object to the public display of pictures showing a home burglar with his face shot off?
You made the statement that everyone must see those images. I wanted to know just how dedicated to the idea that you were. You agree that six years of age is too young. I am trying to find the threshold age that makes it permissible to expose someone to these pictures.
There was a link to web site posted somewhere above. That appeared to be warehouse for these pictures. That site had a popup that asked people less than 12 years of age to leave. Is 12 years old the right threshold age? Is 12 years of age the age when you would show and tell Brad? Is 12 years of age the age when you would show and tell Brad's friends?
Is this sorta like the definition of "is" is? And what the heck is RKBA? I'll wait.
It is okay with me if you do not answer the questions about age of consent for these images. I can understand how people can say things they really do not mean. Things that they have not thought through.
Duh. Thanks. I'm feeling stupid about THAT one!
I won't answer your question cuz I don't know the answer. Each child develops at a different age. What one can handle, another can't. That SHOULD be left up to the parent.
Can't we just discuss the abortion issue without all the nitpicking? Heck, I called my dog dumb one day but I don't MEAN that it's a dumb dog. I just said it. Ya gonna sic the PETA people on me for THAT?
BTW, what bothers you about those pictures so much?
