Washington (AFP) - A suspected shooter reportedly spoke of "no more baby parts" after his arrest following a five-hour siege of a family planning clinic in Colorado Springs that left three people dead, including a police officer.

Details began to emerge Saturday about what may have driven the suspect, Robert Lewis Dear, 57, to enter the Planned Parenthood clinic with a high-powered rifle on Friday and fire on police and civilians outside the building.

The clinic performs abortions -- a highly emotive and divisive issue in America.

NBC News, citing two law enforcement officials, said that when questioned after his arrest Dear mentioned "no more baby parts" in reference to Planned Parenthood.

I think it would be smarter to quietly walk into the pp instead of starting the shooting outside. If pp was the target, that is.

The guy wasn't always a loser.

Cabin-dwelling recluse ‘Planned Parenthood gunman' was once a happily married father and art dealer – but became a pot-smoking oddball who sought sadomasochistic sex online after divorce

...why did the right hand of the Federal gov't know what the left hand of the Federal gov't was doing, and not disqualify him from a firearm purchase?

Too busy watching Patriots, the ones they consider the REAL danger to the regime.

“the guy is an extremely heavy user of marijuana..”

He should have overdosed and died long ago. Like all the
other heavy users of marijuana. The biggest coverup is
all the dead “heavy users of marijuana”. If the drug is
so powerful that it makes you shoot up an abortion clinic
you would think that it’s danger of overdose would be
more publicly proclaimed.

First they were saying it was an AK, but I don’t know if it is certain. It sounded like they were starting to back away from that. Then they stopped giving out information, and let the media speculate the whole weekend.

Possible he didn’t know it was a PP place and his comment was a response to an investigator’s question about PP.
Withholding judgement for the time being.

Funny that ex-wife was clueless in yesterday's news stories. She once filed against him for domestic abuse when he hit her but did not follow through. She paints a prettier picture of him in today's story.

A lot can happen in fifteen years.

Would it have been wrong to bomb the railroads leading to Buchenwald?

Since any law enacted in the US would have had no effect on the Nazis then, no, it would not have been wrong.
A very different situation in your own country where laws are used to deal with problems.

As I understand, the fallen officer was from a campus police force. Assuming the other first responders were not regular duty officers my hunch is friendly fire is heavily in play.

Doubtful. UCCS officers are sworn COS city police. He was on duty and in uniform at the time.

These people don't look dangerous to me, but they could be targets.

this line could be a lie- unless they have him on tape stating that, then we will never know if it’s true or not- This sounds an awful lot like our dear leader coming out immediately claiming Benghazi was because of an internet video

I’d agree with you up to the point where people mix things into the marijuana...like PCP for example. That’s a big practice in Detroit.

This guy allegedly shot a lot of cops but the narrative is not that he hated cops.

The family of a victim has identified him as Ke’Arre M. Stewart.

He was black but no mention that the shooter hated blacks. No - this is all about abortion clinics not being safe from white Christian conservatives and they will not let facts get in the way.

Maybe he was trying to rob the bank and when it went bad, decided to use the Planned Parenthood location as a coverup for his motive. He had plenty of time to try and think of a cover story. And protesting Planned Parenthood would at least get him more sympathy potentially than robbing a bank.

“Critics, many of whom seek to outlaw abortion in the United States, have falsely accused Planned Parenthood of selling fetal organs and body parts for profit, and encouraging women to have abortions in order to expand such operations.”

Um, no.

Critics have SEEN that PP sells baby body parts, and often keeps the babies alive to dismember them. We have seen the way these poor babies are tortured, or their deceased little bodies ripped up disrespectfully like a wolf on a sheep.

It’s not about the money; we didn’t think any woman was encouraged to abort to get her parts. It’s about the callous treatment of human beings, dead or alive.

“Most people who smoke marijuana don’t go out and shoot people”

Except among gang bangers in Chicago.
