Late Term Abortion "Doctor" Murdered

[Facetious]

A doctor who was one of the few in the US to continue carrying out late-term abortions was shot dead in a church today.

George Tiller, 67, who had been picketed, bombed and shot in the arms in previous incidents, was killed at his church in Kansas, according to police sources.

Tiller was a controversial man, whose clinic has been the site of protests for two decades. He was shot and wounded by a protester in 1993 and someone placed a bomb on the roof of the clinic in 1986, seriously damaging the building.

Police spokesman Gordon Bassham would not confirm the victim's identity but said a 67-year-old "high-profile individual in the community" was shot and killed. He was shot at 10am in the lobby of Reformation Lutheran church in Wichita, police and city officials said.

If the guy ("Doctor") carried out late term abortions out of his clients' desire for convenience, than GOOD Riddance, the Piece of dogshit !
After 3 - 4 months tops abortion is infanticide In My Opinion. It won't be changed.

Up to 4 months I'm pro choice. If a pregnancy goes further than 4 months and a preganat lady flakes out and wants to terminate her pregs simply out of convenience (not for serious personal health reasons) she's selfish and useless.

JMO YMMV

Its too bad that someone whose only offense was performing medical treatments should be the target of such extremists.Hope they catch the culprit and he never see's the light of day again as well as having all his assets seized.A fitting use for those assets would be a fund in the murdered doctors name that provides funds for low income people to have abortions.

Did you bother to research the reason that he performed 19 late-term abortions, F? There was a consensus with other doctors that to carry the fetus to full term was a threat to the life of the mothers. He was acquitted of charges that he violated Kansas law in March of this year. He was not regularly performing late-term abortions simply at the whim of the patient.

Now, an individual who thinks he can supersede the law took it upon himself to murder this man. That's not the way it works in this country. I hope they put the guy away for life.

No one can justify taking the law into their own hands regardless of their personal convictions. I'm disappointed that you would be in favor of this type of blatant disrespect for the legal process, F....especially since he had already been tried and acquitted.

Child Hater ^ ^




Like everything else in politics, there has to be some regulation !
(where have I heard that before ? :tongue
I like policy that can accommodate both the pro and the anti. Not to sound self aggrandizing here, but my opinion is a totally reasonable compromise and I didn't arrive at it from any political party platform !

The only thing that is required of a pregs lady (post testing positive for the pregnancy) is a wee bit of personal responsibility. Don't get ready to go down to the clinic @ 11 weeks with cash in hand but decide to call the dope dealer instead.

Another Pro Life Christian Fundamentalist Terrorist acting on God’s behalf. He was doing what God would do if only God had all the information the murderer had. We need to include Terry Randall and his ilk in the war on terror.

I hate to hear things like that but I'm pro-life it is not up to us USE A CONDOM :dunno:I'm just saying:thumbsup:

That's the problem, it's not a matter politics ..but a matter of law, ethics, religiosity, medicine and biology.

 

[Mauser98k]

so it's ok to kill a guy because he "kills" fetuses?

god religious people are stupid...

I have no problem with regulation. You're willing to empower the murderer to be the regulator? Wow....

Is that your complete opinion on the subject, or did you leave out several qualifiers?

Being against abortion is not the exclusive purview of the religious, and many religious are pro-choice...myself included.
I find, quite often, the non-religious are quite stupid, and parrot the usual dogma of the "enlightened" while screwing up their lives and others around them with their lost and bewildered take on right and wrong...based on who's looking at the moment.
Abortion is not something that has a thing to do with a supreme creator, except to those creating their own reality from ancient writings, mumbling streetcorner lunatics, and rumors circulating in many Churches as to what God wants.
If Facetious chooses to wish death on a caring and brave Doctor, he is misguided and will, I'm sure, find his way to the truth eventually.
And likewise, if you wish to insult every person with a developed sense of spiritual connection by lumping all of us together with antiabortionist maniacs, you are misguided as well, and hopefully will find your way to a more truthful take on radical Doctor-killing fanatics.

R.I.P Doc...

Heard about this on the news. The thing that gets me is. All these "anti abortion" advocates use the argument that abortion is "murder" So how can they justify killing this guy? It flies in the face of what they argue against!!!

 

[Facetious]

He was not regularly performing late-term abortions simply at the whim of the patient.

Surprised that his services are considered as "abortion" if he's merely terminating pregnancies as a means of evading a prognosis that indicates detrimental health consequences to the mothers had they carried their pregs to full term.

If this is all in fact true, he's not an "abortion Doc", IMO,
It's just that the word ABORTION is so full of malice, something has to be done to revise the namesake of this late docs services.

Are these private or public health care facilities ? (if you get th' drift ?) :tongue: J/K

I'll read up on it. & Thanks for the additional linky.

Isn't America awesome?

 

[calpoon]

A lot of anti-murder people like to ask what if you or Jesus or someone cool was aborted?

Well what if a future abortionist was aborted? then they wouldn't be able to grow up and perform abortions. What do you think about that?

You never really know how someone will turn out. I say we can't take that risk. better to err on the side of caution. If you want to make an omlete, you gotta break a few ovums.

I mean don't get me wrong here, I'm not some whacko. I think that women should be forced to give birth as punishment for the sin of having sex. They should even be given fertility pills when they hit puberty just to make sure that they have to squeeze out 6 or seven babies. and Then afterwards if the baby turns out to be a bad person, we can do the Christian duty and stone it to death. But there's always the chance that he might be a serial killer and we wouldn't know it, so again i say that we can't take the risk.

mandatory random abortions should be the policy across the board. well Ok, how about a compromise. I just can't get behind abortion and even carrying out for the right reasons is a sin aaginst the abortionist. So we should just kill the pregnant women instead. perfect. It all works out.

Killing to prevent killing or to avenge/punish killing is a time-honored tradition.
Makes perfect sense to kill a killer...the problem is whether the Doctor was a killer...many do not feel this is the case, and under the law he was not as well.
Do you feel that preemptive killing is ever justified? Or as punishment for past sins, even if the killing was legal and permitted?
It's not quite as simple a decision to judge the shooter as just a flake or a Jihadist wanna-be...there are many people who feel strongly that to save unborn babies it's necessary to kill the Doctors who will kill them...and it's a very effective system, both in immediate results and discouraging future participation in any-term abortion.

So should this guy be killed to prevent more killing?

Killing to "avenge" is never honorable. However, some crimes deserve the ultimate sanction as punishment because that is justice.

 

[rawlwear]

see the thing weird with religion is for catholic they don't believe in using condoms or abortions so if your really in to your religion your actions are limited. As for the killing of the man I don't agree killing a man for "killing" babies I guess you would call it? so how does that prove there point? But than was that man really in wrong for what he did, is it almost selfish to keep a child that will be born in to a not so good family per say if it was to happen.?

overall we have so many ways to stop pregnancy but the hole world has gotten lazy.

Huh?

Killing someone for committing a terrible crime is avenging their crime. Those two circumstances you just mentioned are in no way, shape or form any different from one another, so how can you say that one is never honorable, yet, the other one is justified?

:dunno:

 

[Trevesty]

Blame the would-be mother; not the doctor.

The logic of some of you is equivalent to hardcore liberals blaming our soldiers in Iraq/Afghanistan for the war, rather than Bush & Co.

He didn't seek them out and say, "hey, I know you're about to have a baby, so could I talk you into an abortion? sounds fun!"

Closed-minded people are bothersome..
