Murder in Wichita
by Debra J. Saunders
If law enforcement officials believe they can prove that Scott Roeder is guilty of Sunday's shooting death of abortion doctor George Tiller at the Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita, Kan., then they should work to put him away for life. Roeder is being held on first-degree murder and two counts of aggravated assault.
In killing Tiller, the gunman did more than commit one violent act that ended a man's life. The murder also served to intimidate abortion providers — and perhaps ...

Gee. Where do ya start? So, Scott Roeder is a monster? Really? Cause I thought that we WANTED Mass Murderers killed. Don't we? Hitler. Stalin, Pol Pot, Milosevich. I thought we ADMIRED people who DID THE RIGHT THING, even if it wasn't recognized as such, at the time. JOHN BROWN, comes to mind. He decided that SLAVERY was an ABOMINATION to GOD. And if the GOVERNMENT wasn't gonna stop it, he was. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I THINK, that JOHN BROWN is remembered, TODAY, as a man who saw a HORRIBLE WRONG, and did something to STOP IT. I see no difference in what Scott Roeder did. TILLER was a MONSTER. A normal human being could NOT do what he did, for a living, and go to sleep at night. He pulled FULL TERM BABIES out from their Mothers' Wombs, until just their head remained inside. Then he inserted a SCISSOR device in to the base of the LITTLE BABIES' SKULL, and sucked out its' brain. Then he went home, kissed his wife, had a nice supper, and went to sleep. The idea, that people are shedding tears for the JOSEPH MENGELA of our time, is DISGUSTING. A MASS MURDERER OF CHILDREN IS DEAD. What could be better than that? The wages of SIN, are DEATH. If doing what TILLER the KILLER was doing, isn't a SIN, then nothing is. The Lord works in mysterious ways. And the fact that this CREATURE, was killed in a HOUSE OF GOD, is fitting. May TILLER burn in Hell, for eternity. And this might deter other BUTCHERS from performing their heinous procedures? Good.

The murder of Tiller was wrong on all levels, but your outrage of the situation is at best fake and worse, condesending. 60,000 times you had the opportunity to be outraged as each of those children were murdered, yet you said nothing. I was taught to look for the good in every situation. The murders have stopprd

Ma'am; to narrow this crime to a single victim and a single criminal entirely misses the point... The right killed that man, and they thank God and give him the credit...They used their rhetoric to justify the murder before the act, and now they celebrate... Sure, a lonely nut pulled the trigger, but if every person who inflamed his senses to the act were put on trial there would be countless defendents...And here is the thing...If the right were responsible, and if they did not waste so much of their effort trying to effect political change that is unjustified, then they could prevent many abortions... They will not love those mothers, and make them a part of their lives...They hate the sin, and they hate the sinner, and they love power... They want to make a law, and barring that, they want to coerce with violence...They are like the slave South, that was contented with politics while they had the numbers, but when the numbers went against them, resorted to violence and to war...And just like the slave South; they would make America the slave of their ideology, which is to say: Slave to their brand of Slavery... There is no legal justification for giving rights to the unborn...There is plenty of moral argument against abortion...But; if those who make the moral argument against abortion will not do what they can, and should, to limit abortion, and instead try to do what they should not do, and cannot do to make abortion illegal when this rightly divides all Americans; then they are neither moral nor righeous... If they believe the fetus is human, then help the mother, and help the family long after the birth... Make them a part of the Christian community, and do what all people should do in regard to others in need....Most people, if given an opportunity, will love their children... Give them the opportunity; but don't think you can force that obligation to love onto some one whe does not feel it, or accept it...Make the moral argument, and meet mothers half way... America does not, and the world does not need a single new law, or any more coercion... We need freedom because freedom loves the children that slavery hates... Making laws is no solution, and in this case is a waste of time and money that might do good... Why use the name of God in vain??? Why join the political process in vain??? All people should give up on vanity and frustration, and start to act as Christians, and not petty citizen tyrants...Do good, and help others to do good...Thanks...Sweeney

Re: Timothy L. Pennell; If you can control the life in a Mother's womb, then you can control her life, and if her life can be controlled, then your life can be controlled by the same argument... People do not need to be free in their interactions with all people... They need to be allowed a certain freedom in their own person and in their own affairs to be thought of as free at all... If it were possible for you to have any one of those aborted fetuses as a living child, a part of your family on a lottery basis, not getting to chose, health, or intelligence, or color of skin; how many would you take??? It is easy to run down one person for one abortion, or the doctor who performs many; but we do not know the circumstances, and do not want to know the circumstances, and do not justly know the circumstances... Obviously, many who have abortions do not have love, or feel supported...Obviously, many were in love when they became pregnant, and then discovered they were in parenthood alone...Some found they were carrying a deformed baby, or a baby that would be rejected by their own family... Rather than make a law forbidding abortion, make a law curing the need for love, the need for affection, excitment, passion... Make a love curing humanity of rape, infactuation, or seduction... This dead abortion doctor did exactly as all doctors should do when he treated the living... He put his patients first, and then he left them free to solve their other problems...But before he is condemned, let every bigot search his own soul, and see what is left to do to give support to the needy, and love to the loveless...It is evil to deny all our obligations to others, and then demand that they endure their oblgations alone... We could all act more responsibly, but then, we might all have to abandond our idealogies, and start to see each other as human beings instead of objects called sinners or simpletons... Thanks... .Sweeney
