I was gone for a couple of days.
Some of the comments I’ve read make me quite literally ill. I know that people are speaking freely, but at NO POINT will I ever justify, rationalize, defend or explain a murderer who went into a church (or anyplace else) and killed someone in cold blood.
I know that people are passionate about the issue of abortion, but this man was murdered. If you are going to excuse the murderer, these are scarier times that we can even concieve.
Because excusing him means you have just painted a target on everyone’s head. Any soldier returning from war might be considered by some to be a “murderer” and so, it’s excusable if they are killed. Some might consider it “justice”...we would think that kind of thought is dangerously radical...
So, how does excusing the doctor’s killer not make YOU a dangerous radical?
It is reprehensible that anyone would make any comment except that men should not be gunned down in cold blood.
I will be watching to see what develops after this taking of innocent life in Arkansas. These victims are members of our military.
Some may hate them with a passion because they disagree with the war. That is no excuse to take the law into your own hands.
We are a nation of laws. There’s a reason.
We used to be. Now we're a nation of "feelings".
Those in charge can justify anything they do simply by saying "This is best for the country" or, "We need to do this to protect or help..."
The Federal Government no longer respects State Laws or sovereignty. Individual rights are ignored because of an order from above to sacrifice for the good of the collective. The Constitution may as well no longer exist in a nation where the President can make law and policy through executive order, while no one with authority stands to question it.
I am absolutely horrified at what this nation has become.
The murder yesterday and the murder today at the recruitment center should make every American tremble with fear in that it is only a matter of time before we have lost all respect for the law, for human rights, and for the sanctity of life.
We have lost our soul when we can see fit to justify cold, calculated murder.
It is reprehensible that anyone would mention George Tiller's name with mentioning what he did for a living -- murdering fully-formed unborn children that are the equivalent of infants. And, in most cases, the life of the mother wasn't involved in his killings.
That doesn't justify the act that took his life. But, anyone with a conscious can't ignore his ghoulish occupation.
