OMG We have a martyr

[DaShi]

Not the average Christian. Not the average gay.

When the government doesn't just leave serial murderers alone, but actively defends their right to be serial murderers, vigilantism seems pretty justified.

Not if it is state sanctioned murder. In that case, it would be the equivalent of killing a US soldier and Roeder would be considered a terrorist.

This man is a lunatic. The fact that he proclaims himself a Christian, doesn't make him the common Christian, nor really Christian at all.
If you want to do that, then Mr Fun can serve as the gay poster boy. I don't think you want that.

No true scotsman.

This could open up a lot of slippery slope vigilantism.

I'd support a taxpayer-funded program to make them freely available to anyone who wants them.

I'd support a taxpayer-funded program that gave mandatory vasectomies to all kids ages 12 and up. That way no more pregger wimmens until they reverse the procedure after they get a life partner/wife.

The diabolical bastard was convicted.

Yawn. I'll shed no tears for Tiller, but terrorism is bad in and of itself, even without considering the bad PR. I don't even like the death penalty, so I don't approve of this.

[Theben]

I was serious. Make it a rite-of-passage thing. No way in hell it'll happen of course.

[DaShi]

Tiller was a great man providing a necessary community service. Given the type of opppsition he faced, his bravery to continue with his work each day is commendable. Tiller is a true hero and inspiration to us all!

Sure, but justified at the demise of democracy and rule of law.

If we accept that personhood begins at conception, then abortion really is comparable to the Holocaust. I'd say terrorism to try to stop the Holocaust would have been justified even in a democratic Germany.

But that's not accepted.

[Jon Miller]

But this won't actually any stop abortions, either late term or early.

You have to change people, although I would favor changing the law to outlaw late abortions.

But that's not accepted.

It is by a considerable fraction of the populace.
