In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Tiller Murder Is Terrorism, and All Pro-Life Extremists Are to Blame - Bonnie Erbe (usnews.com)


Does anyone else here see a bomb ready to go off?

So, new question in regards to Dr. Tiller's murder. Should we work to quite down the new controversy to where the very tense state it was in before the murder, should we work to make this explosion as large as possible and see who is left afterward, or should we just run? Which do you want to do? Which do you plan to do? Which do you think it is moral to do?

Part of me wants to make the explosion bigger, as it will get a lot of those who are rhetoric in the most part to seriously reconsider their position. If you call it murder, and the law is not stopping it, should you just sit on your hands and wait? At the same time, this could turn nasty if more people start killing, but then again, it will get others to understand the relativity of their posistion on other axises of thought. As to what I will do, no clue yet, but probably nothing unless someone else brings the topic up, at least till I made up my mind how I feel about this morally.

You are that sure that this will just quite down after a while?

I don't know what's going on that needs to quiet down because I don't really watch or read the news. It doesn't affect my life much. It was a murder, and there are lots of murders for all kinds of reasons everyday in the world. Granted there was a murder which started a World War last century, but large effects from a single murder are very rare.

No explosion. But I think it will mobilize the prochoice folks and eventually lead to the death of a protester or two. I'm not advocating that by any means, but when people get hyper-vigilant about their personal safty stuff happens.

Now nobody go acting surprised and outraged when it does since we all know that's the likely outcome here. And if you don't think so, just remember I told ya so.

Yes, the Pro-Life stance will be much better understood after a couple more murders.

I hope it will help the people calling themselves "pro life" to understand the implication of what they say.
Their words justified this murder and previous murders and any more that follow and I hope that they can understand and accept that.

It makes no sense to call abortion providers mass murderers and make comparisons to the holocaust and expect peaceful protest to be the sum of opposition.

Tiller was killed?

I bet the liberal media is gonna have a field day with this one.

I do pray for his soul though. No matter how much of a monster he was. With some of the abortions this man performed(sometimes on a babies 9 months old) it was probably only a matter of time until something like this happened. I think this happened another time also, when Tiller was shot a few years ago but survived.

Well, I don't believe the doctor should have been aborted ------ I mean murdered. But if one lives by the scalpel, one is likely to die the same way... Thoughtlessly.

Pray for his family. There is nothing to do for his soul if it wasn't already considered by the doctor while he was alive...

I suppose that if thoughtlessness were terminal, you wouldn't be here to grace us with your presence. If I didn't already know it, I'd have learned it in this thread.

from article said:
Dan Holman: I believe that all abortionists are deserving of death, and they are not the only ones. There are politicians and judges and others who support this murder that are also deserving of death.

This is the difference between an anti-abortionist and a pro-lifer. :sigh:

It's not going to escalate, although as part of the ever growing debacle that is the economy and the totalitarian tendencies continuing in our government, it could possibly be part of a confluence of events that could trigger larger things.

But this sort of thing has happened before, and has not resulted in an abortion related mass-hysteria or mob actions.

After the initial shock of Roe V. Wade, and years of seemingly senseless victories by the abortionists, I think pro lifers have discovered the mistake all along. Too many pro lifers simply took the position that it is a ban at conception or nothing, and were not sympathetic enough to common concerns about the health of the mother.

As the debate has dragged on, I think a lot of people who were on the fence became disenchanted with the abortion side due to the pressure to not inform potential mothers for example, and of course the atrocity of partial birth abortion.

I perhaps naively think the moderates on both sides will prevail.

But it also doesn't change my opinion that many who are pro-life forgot what the word "choice" means or make me forget that while this is yet another murder by the extremists of that side...how many pro choice people have murdered prolifers?

Unfortunately, terrorism is the weapon for those that feel disenfranchised. With the Democrats in power we will see more such displays of domestic terrorism over the next few years. If we are lucky, the rhetoric will not reach the point that it did prior to the Oklahoma City bombing.

I agree, those who live by the sword shall die by the sword as Christ told us. As shown in Tillers case.

The pro-abortion movement is gonna turn this killer(the Catholic League called him a serial killer) into a martyr probably. Which will solidify their movement.

Lots people are blaming O-Riley though. Since he was the first news reporter who brought this man under the media. For his constant reports on his illegal abortions.

Lotsa people in Kansas did not want this guy around through. They considered his clinic to be a embarrassment and an ugly stain for their community knowing what was going on everyday.
