[Regarding the murder of abortion provider George Tiller.]
I'm noticing the media spin-machine at work. The glaze over what the "doctor" had done, putting him on the level of a simple abortionist- Third trimester abortion is heinous, and while I do not support murder, I see where the shooter was coming from. Actually, screw it, I may support murder in instances such as this where law is deaf dumb and blind. Blatant painful murder is unacceptable. Did you recoil in shock when Dahmer was beaten down, albeit illegally, for his crimes against humanity?
The spin the media is putting on this is quite epic, it would be like calling Hitler's suicide in his bunker as "Prolific youth leader and economic genius kills self due to lack of western support"- While technically true in all of the words, it's the part they omit that is the killer. So it goes, so it goes.

Dr. Tiller /= Jeffery Dahmer. He was not a serial killer. He didn't lure young boys back to his apartment say he could 'keep them with him forever'. Nor did he eat human flesh or pour acid into his victim's brains to make his own personal zombie slaves.
And I would think that from a sensible pro-life point of view, the abortions Tiller did were less heinous than those done by other abortionists. Dr. Tiller only did them in emergencies because it's illegal to do late term abortions except in extreme circumstances. The babies are already dead, seriously deformed, or the mother's going to die. Regular abortions could happen for whatever reason the mother wants.
But we couldn't expect any common sense out of you could we?
Well, I ... Ah, screw it. I may support murder in the case of rampant vicious shitheads like divineseraph.
Not really, because I'm not a bloodthirsty idiot; but how does it feel to be on the other end of that statement?

Yes, I recoil in shock when anyone is beaten down or killed. A human life is a precious thing and should not be wasted, in any way. (Oh, and you start being a human when you are born.) And the recoil happens also when the person is killed by the state, after a death sentence. As far as I know, the US of A is the only democracy legally killing its citizen.
I don't know exactly what Doctor Tiller did, but third trimester abortions, that must be malformed fetuses or severely sick women, right? Would divinseraph want to carry a dead baby in her womb for thee months before the labor started? And I bet that Hitler outdoes Tiller as a killer by about ten thousand miles. Around 10 milion people died during or right after WWII, which was started by Hitler.
All right, I'll say it:
Jeffrey Dahmer was a heinous, contemptible man. And he was sentenced to life in prison for his crimes. The circumstances surrounding his death, although not surprising, were definitely lamentable and regrettable, especially from the vantage point of the guards who allowed it to happen.
Dahmer's death was a crime and I believe a thorough investigation of the circumstances was warranted. In terms of punishment for Dahmer's own crimes, I can't help but think that justice was not served.
edit: I just looked up Dahmer on Wikipedia. He apparently became a fundamentalist Christian in prison before he was killed. So have the fundies reached the point where they're willing to eat your own?
What the hell is it with people putting his title in quotes?
I mean, I know a medical student who REALLY shouldn't be allowed to graduate, but this guy has been saving lives for decades.

Correcting a mere single word shows just how batshit you really are. Distasteful =/= heinous. Hell, it's not even necessarily immoral.
There are people out there who claim "meat is murder", by your logic, they would be justified in shooting anyone coming out of a "Charlie Brown's".
When the law is "deaf, dumb and blind" to the needless suffering of cows and chickens and pigs, are you in favour of the wholesale gunning down of restaurant goers and chefs?
If not, why not? Why aren't people allowed to take the law into their own hands when they feel the regular channels have let them down? Why can't some extremist atheist gun down a priest because the government is too gutless to ban religion? Why can't a white supremecist lynch a mix-race couple because the courts insist on recognising their marriage?
Why isn't everyone in society allowed to kill anyone who offends their morals or sensibilities if the law of that society won't stop them from offending you?
Give it some thought, it'll come to you.
Glaze over? Perhaps you mean "gloss over." Glaze over is what my eyes do when reading boring Fundie posts.
Third trimester abortions are not heinous. What if the fetus has no brain? What if its organs are developing outside its body? What if the developing fetus is killing its mother?
Dr. Tiller was a law-abiding physician. If he was not law-abiding, his punishment would be up to our legal system to decide.
Wow, justifying murder and comparing a doctor who provided an important service to many women to Hitler in one short paragraph.
You are a sick fuck, eh slugger?

GODWIN!
The law is "deaf dumb and blind" according to YOU.
Everyone has different opinions about the law but we all still need to follow it.
Except when it comes to pot.
From what i can gather, he performed these abortions when the foetus was not developed properly. I don't see anything wrong in that - why force a woman to go through labour to delver a dead child?
Ah. Of course, you want women to go through that pain. silly me!
@HeathenAngel:
Anyone who thinks murdering Tiller is OK, because he "kills" babies, and the rest of the drivel in his post, IS a fundie! He doesn't even have to mention the sky daddy. You can almost smell the scent of fundamentalism!
What kind of spin is he putting on his opinion?
Username: divineseraph..divine seraph as in Seraphim? This 'tard thinks he is some kind of avenging angel? I can almost hear the fap-fap-fap starting over there.
To be fair, there are some moderate pro-lifers in the thread, but, some of them! What compassion they have.
@ David B: Excellent point about the slippery slope. I haven't thought of it that way before. I'm going to save that.
Even the other Gaia Members are bashing this lunatic. Go rationality!
Anyways, if you are going to take the stance of "pro-life", you have to appeal to being against the death of every human being, being execution, war or abortion. This person is a disgusting hypocrite.
So if someone cracks Hovinds neck in jail for dumbing down America, You're on their side?
See how that works? How about putting Bush and Cheney on a leaky boat with Rush Limbaugh? I don't want them dead, but it wouldn't hurt.

Pedofelia, Theft, Corruption, Dishonesty, Financial crime, Misinformation, Lies, False witness, Ignorance, uncareing, unrelenting violence. Do I need to go on?
Hitler was a ripple in Christian madness

There's probably at least a few members of PETA who think exactly that.
"Did you recoil in shock when Dahmer was beaten down, albeit illegally, for his crimes against humanity? "
Dahmer was a fundie. Your doctor killer was a fundie. Have you noticed what they have in common?
Except according to you idiots, Dahmer is sitting on the right side of Jesus enjoying all the joys of heaven. Whereas a man that helped women carrying terminally ill babies, or suffering other heartbreaking pregnancy problems is in hell.
That last bit was pretty clever. I can admire the wit.
You're still a nutjob, though. Late-term abortion is a sticky wicket and pretty horrifying, but vigilante violence isn't ever really an answer.
Unless...are you Frank Castle?
Third trimester abortions are terrible things however women who have them don't just suddenly decide "I want an abortion after all." No by that point a woman has already decided to keep her baby and is going though an abortion after serous thought, generally when her life and the life of the baby are in danger.
Tiller saved lives, the lives of women who probably went on to having more children. If future children are so important then isn't aborting one dangerous pregnancy worth it if she goes on to have say three kids later. That's just a hypothetical situation but had the woman died giving birth her three future kids all would have never been born.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
