With Tiller slaying, abortion opponents lose their moral standing

Sorry about TIller’s family, they lost Dad, Uncle, etc, etc.

I'm not sorry for the family.The fact that they were even willing to be in the same *room* as the dead serial killer makes them accomplices.

[Mr. Silverback]

And if we’re right about that, then we know the identities of his accomplices. They include everyone who has ever called Tiller’s late-term abortion clinic a murder mill. Whoever called Tiller “Tiller the Killer.” Groups that fomented hate toward a man who, rightly or wrongly, believed he was serving a noble purpose by being one of the few doctors in the country who performed late-term abortions.

To use this genius logic, everyone who referred to the death of JFK as an assassination or Lee Harvey Oswald as an assassin or murderer is just as guilty of his murder as Jack Ruby was. Or try this analogy: Since I've called O.J. Simpson a murderer, if somebody kills him in prison I'm guilty and should go away for life.

What a tool.

[paulycy]

Has Bill O’Reilly commented on this. I think he’s the one who gave him the nickname, “Tiller the Killer”. Maybe not.

O'Reilly invented this IIRC. If his "Talking Points Memo" is not about Tiller I'll eat my remote. (Maybe wrapped in a tortilla with a bit of salsa...)

BULL CRAP!!! How do pro-lifers lose their moral standing because of the actions of one man? I will say what I said on another post: You reap what you sow. Proverbs 6:17 lists “hands that shed innocent blood (abortion)” as one of the six things God hates. Something like this was bound to happen when you’re one of the most hated men in America; including being hated by God, Himself. Now, don’t any bleeding heart, politically correct folks strike up an argument with me and try to tell me you have to hate sin but love the sinner. Psalms 5:5 says that God hates all workers of iniquity. How much more iniquitous can you get than killing little, defenseless babies? Just telling what God said in His Word; and that Book has stood the test of time.

[MortMan]

This what I expect from the KC Red Star.

By this logic, All doctors share the blame for Tiller’s partial-birth abortion kills.

As do all mealy-mouthed writers.

Screw him.

[Mr. Silverback]

I wonder what this tool columnist says when he sees some dipstick kid wearing a Che T-shirt.

[Sir Gawain]

Nice try asshole.

[rbmillerjr]

So basically this writer wants Pro Life advocates to feel they have lost their moral high ground because the immoral writer thinks we should feel guilty.

Note that Leftists are highly emotive thinkers and many fail to use rational thought, let alone logic.

I feel no guilt as I had nothing to do with the murder of this murder and neither should protesters who bravely protest the murder of innocent unborn babies.

The emotional Leftists thrive and run their government apparatus on emotionalism and guilt. Guilt about race, guilt about gender, guilt about just wars, guilt about success and the ability to make money.

I have no guilt about protesting for the unborn.
I am proud of being on the right side of good.

Not Guilty.

Somehow I feel like watching Braveheart again

watch out for folks named Edward

Nosterrex _ How long have you been advocating molesting children? Don’t you think it’s about time you stop?

[TFMcGuire]

so true.

Is church discipline no longer in the New Testament. I suspect this is no true Christian chuch but a social gospel counterfeit.

[TXnMA]

"With Tiller slaying, abortion opponents lose their moral standing"

Yep, exactly like how the antics of Lee Harvey Oswald totally destroyed the "moral standing" of the people of Dallas... </SARC>

There goes the MSM propaganda mill again -- in their "wishful thinking" or "self-fulfilling prophecy" mode...

[KosmicKitty]

Why? Did they kill him??

No, one man killed him. For what ever reason. most liked because the doctor performed abortions, but this was the act of one individual, not a group.

Is it any different from the man who tried to kill his wife’s divorce lawyer? Did that make all men who were getting divorced lose their standing?

[farmer18th]

Is church discipline no longer in the New Testament. I suspect this is no true Christian chuch but a social gospel counterfeit.

Unfortunately, like most American churches today. I'm convinced that if most American Evangelicals sat under Jonathan Edwards or Whitefield's preaching, they would feel like chubby high school dropouts enduring a spiritual marine boot camp. We are spiritually soft, lazy dullards who attend the "sin that grace may abound" church.

Praying that the pastors wake up and have the courage to speak the truth--their tax exempt status be d*mned.

[MrB]

I call this a “church or worldly values”. As such, God and the Spirit of Truth are NOT present, and it is essentially an apostate church dominated by Satanic values.

Mike Hendricks never had any ‘moral standing’ if he kept his mouth shut while TILLER THE KILLER aborted FULL TERM BABIES one right after the other!

A NUT killed Tiller! No one else wanted him to be killed or had anything to do with it! Mike Hendricks is a liar!

He just wants to SHUT UP anyone else who has a different opinion than his! NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!

Demonizing? By telling the truth? No one would ever have called Tiller a murderer, if he hadn't been doing exactly that.

Of course, since the Supreme Court forced legal abortion on the nation in 1973, the pro-abortion folks think killing unborn children is just fine and dandy, since it's LEGAL. Anyone who believes that needs to be reminded that the Supreme Court also once ruled that black people were LEGALLY not 'human beings' subject to protection. That ruling was likely 'informed' by pro-slavery sentiment, as Roe v Wade was engineered by the extremely liberal pro-abortion groups, in collusion with the liberals on the Court.

Dred Scott was eventually overturned, because of the heinousness and stupidity of the decision, and I have no doubt that Roe v Wade will eventually be either overturned, or extremely restricted, by legislation. Sentiment in this country is slowly moving toward LIFE, since folks are beginning to understand the negative ramifications of unrestricted abortion.

[Mom MD]

I did not kill anyone and have not lost any moral standing to oppose abortion. Besides, the only standing I need is Christ, I do not oppose anything on my own merit, because I too am a sinner.
