What do you think of anti-abortion violence?

Dr. George Tiller was shot and killed at his church in Wichita one year ago today.

George Richard Tiller, MD (August 8, 1941 – May 31, 2009) was an American physician from Wichita, Kansas. He was the medical director of a clinic in Wichita, Women’s Health Care Services, one of only three nationwide which provided abortions after the 21st week of pregnancy (known as late-term abortion).

On May 31, 2009, Tiller was shot through the eye and killed, by anti-abortion activist Scott Roeder, as Tiller served as an usher during the Sunday morning service at his church in Wichita.

This was an innocent man who was only providing women with a LEGAL medical procedure. How can this crime be justified? What do you think of anti-abortion violence?

    Justified ? Nah , joking in such serious matters is just … tasteless ; sorry .

    I think it can’t be right in anyway possible , 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

  2. Lotak says:

    I don’t agree with abortion, but murder is far worse.

    There is no justification for murdering this man.
    Anti-abortion violence is WRONG.

    @ god The Editing Dog

    That is exactly what I am saying. Whilst embryos/foetuses have the potential to become human, they aren’t on the same level as human beings and Judaism recognises that. Whilst Judaism disagrees with abortion, it recognises that there are some cases where abortion is necessary and even obligatory.

    Scott Roeder is an American Hero, he has saved the lives of countless babies!

    “I don’t agree with abortion, but murder is far worse.”

    Your statement seems to hint that unborn babies aren’t equals as humans. Thank you!

    I’m pro-choice, so obviously ant-abortion violence is wrong, and stupid.

    Mr Amen: I hope you are a troll. Even as such, don’t joke about things like that you ignorant prick shit.

    Bring the TD’s On

    By the way, the term “Legal” Means its okay this country (most likely the USA). Not everyone follows your joke of a “moral standard.”

    I think what goes around comes around. At least they were fully grown adults who could defend themselves, and, who made the choices that made so many hate them.

  6. LyssQ says:

    I think that kind of violence defeats the purpose of being against abortion in the first place. So we can’t kill babies but it’s OK to kill people we disagree with? No.

  7. Bamboo says:

    Anti abortion violence makes no sense to me. They claim to be “pro-life” and yet are okay with killing and hurting others. The two ideologies don’t seem to mesh. We get bombings of abortion clinics and shooting doctors point blank in defense of their pro life stance.

    “This was an innocent man who was only providing women with a LEGAL medical procedure.”

    Man is wicked. What about the innocent baby who didn’t get a chance at life?

    And why does the term “legal” make you think it’s just okay now that they slapped a word “legal” on it. Think for yourself! What about all of the things that have been legal before in our government and were reformed? The government isn’t perfect and it’s you people who think just because the government says something is “legal” it’s just right! Look at history, some things that are just beyond irrational have been given the term “legal” darling!!

    PRO-LIFE!!!!!!!!
    If he can kill babies, why is his life any more meaningful?

    Edit: Abortion IS Murder. You are killing innocent babies and denying them life. We all as humans started out as the same stage that these babies are being killed at. Those babies are as equal as us. We were them once before!!

    edit: How can a mother or father who have a healthy child that they love look at them with compassion in their eyes if they are pro-choice, or for killing unborn babies. That child they love so much was once at that stage, so how can they look at their child like they’re something to do away with like a piece of trash and just abort them because they don’t want to handle their responsibilities.

    Like I have said many times, religious nut jobs stop caring about anyone once they are outside of the womb.

  10. athorgarak says:

    1. Legal does not =right
    2. Despite the propaganda, Killing babies while in the womb is not a medical procedure.
    3. Killing an abortionist is great and justified, just as killing a different type of murderer would be if he took his knife to the school playground with the plan of killing the children playing there!
    4. Abortionists are not innocent, no murderer is.
    5. Children are separate, genetically distinct human beings, no matter what stage of development they are in or their geographical location, in or out of the womb.

  11. RED says:

    i think it’s wrong and hypocritical. those people doing that have 0 adopted children and/or foster children at home

  12. Anthem Demon says:

    Religious nuts only value your life until you’re born.

    They should receive a lifetime sentence in prison. With some nice science classes and lectures about other religions and spiritual viewpoints. The death penalty is far too swift and easy for this.

  13. Roy says:

    Abortion IS violence! Your killing a unborn child. A living being… any way you convince yourself that life is nothing… you are killing a unborn Child. Roy J. Johnson

  14. Hugh says:

    Not innocent in gods eyes. Killing a baby is murder.

  15. KT says:

    I think it’s absolutely ridiculous!! I don’t understand it at all!! And a little tidbit about late-term abortions, that you probably already know, but for the people out there that think it’s just another way to “kill babies”, it’s a procedure done in cases where there is extreme defects found late in pregnancy!!

  16. Nani says:

    It was horrific. As is abortion. Two wrongs never can make a right.

  17. xXx*Angel_16*xXx says:

    No killing is ever justified, with any God. Because God is against any killing. Obviously abortion is against God wishes too. All violence is against all Gods wishes.

    The victim was obviously religious didn’t he know that abortion was against his religion?

    Anti-abortion violence? Wow, the irony there. This crime CAN’T be justified, it can never be justified, I heard about this, and frankly, I think abortion is a good option for women. Hmm..notice how the shooter was a man? This man should rot in jail, better yet get shot in the head just like what he did.

  19. wizard41 says:

    I’m against it, isn’t funny how most people against abortion are for the dealth penelty.

  20. Cassie77 says:

    It can not be justified. Tiller was providing a legal service. This killer is crazy and you can’t reason with a person like that.
