One could easily argue that Tiller was summarily executed for crimes against humanity that the civil authorities refused to redress.
Thoreau was a poseur. He would be very much at home in today’s world of self-invented personalities and self-justifying morality.
Amen to your amen.
Indeed.
Had the governor and the attorney general followed the law that the people and the legislature had enacted,
this would not have happened.
Tiller would be safely incarcerated.
If it does indeed want to elect a pro-life President, congress and get a pro-life Supreme Court; then this BS must be condemned.
Nothing will send a viewpoint to the fringes quicker than the American people thinking the people who support that cause support murder of people it doesn't like.
Remember that the heinous practice of slavery was only ended in this country by the shed blood of well more than 600,000 Americans, and the devastation of slightly less than half of the country.
Was ending slavery a sufficient cause to justify the violence and bloodshed of the Civil War?
Is legalized abortion a greater, or lesser, injustice than slavery?
Unfortunately, that ship has sailed long ago. There is NO chance for political success for this cause, or any other conservative cause.
Christians have to start all over again in modern pagan/secular America.
You mean like the peacenik who shot two soldiers in Arkansas? The people just elected one of them to the Presidency.
The cause of "abortion on demand" supports the killing of people it doesn't like.
The weak points in all of these arguments that we make against the murder of Tiller is the logic we use to justify the American Revolution.
On the 4th of July, we will all be singing the other side of the coin.
When it becomes necessary for oppressive chains to be thrown off because of the despotism of the government. Inasmuch as abortion is an issue of disenfranchisement (taxation without representation), and it is, then there is a point at which the oppression of the despots must be overthrown.
That, too, is the lesson of John Brown, who, in the battle hymn of the Republic, lies moldering in his grave.
When is that point? Is it when the court is fully populated with justices who publicly claim that courts “set policy?”
pro-aborts,
in the future,
will be looked upon with the same disdain as
pro-slavers of the 1800’s are today.
So two wrongs make a right. I see.
Maybe ... But what comes between now and then, that definitively puts the abortionists on the receiving end of universal opprobrium?
CWII will be about exactly what the first CW was about - slavery and states’ rights. It won’t be about abortion, directly, though that’s a states’ rights issue.
In this case, however, those states that secede will be the ones opposed to slavery, the slavery of socialism, that the federal gov’t is trying to force on everyone.
Murder is bad. As for George Tiller - reap the whirlwind.
Murder is bad.
Too bad the government of Kansas couldn’t address the crimes that Tiller was committing in order to head off HIS murder.
