Tiller Killer - claims 'victory' in closing of slain doctor's clinic

WICHITA, Kansas (CNN) -- An anti-abortion activist suspected in the death of Kansas doctor George Tiller told CNN on Tuesday the closing of Tiller's women's clinic is "a victory for all the unborn children."

Scott Roeder, 51, would not admit to CNN's Ted Rowlands that he killed Tiller, who was gunned down at his church May 31.

........................

At the time Roeder was interviewed Tuesday, Rowlands had not received word of the permanent closure. But Roeder asked if Tiller's clinic was currently operating, and told it was not, said, "Good."

He said the closure would mean "no more slicing and dicing of the unborn child in the mother's womb and no more needles of poison into the baby's heart to stop the heart from beating, and no more partial-birth abortions."

3. I fear what will happen as a result of the closing of Dr Tiller's clinic
This will only embolden the terrorists.

5. The problem is....
....he's right. It accomplished exactly what he intended to do.

This is just the beginning. The right wing has been trying to use abortion as a wedge issue while doing nothing to stop it, and now the anti-choice nuts feel like they have to take their own actions because "their" GOP has failed them.

6. Yep, terrorism works
That's the inescapable conclusion when the government fails to enforce its laws. Will we the people hold elected officials accountable for their failures?

11. We should invade the country that harbored this guy and start killing its civilians at random
That's our current policy, isn't it?

7. I hope the majority of anti-choice advocates see how twisted this "logic" is.
And step back with their rhetoric and their "who me?" cover when confronted with violent extremism in their midst. It's really sad.

8. My wish for this killer--
That he be locked up for the rest of his life and subjected to 24 hour a day footage of the result of botched amateur abortions, stories of unwanted children abandoned and abused by parents who were unable to choose, little girls who were forced to bear the children of incest or rape, whose bodies were destroyed by bearing too young, women who live with fistulas that leak urine and feces uncontrollably from having to bear children they were too small or too young to bear, young men and women whose dreams were never realized and whose children suffered being blamed for those stunted lives, thalidomide babies, spina bifida children who live short, terrible lives of excruciating pain, and on and on and on without cease, until he pleads for it to stop.

But that would be cruel.

13. He wouldn't care. He'd claim that it was God's will that they suffer
with the postpartum problems. It would have to affect him personally before he gave a good dam.

15. Way'at dawlin'!
:hi:

That terrorist does not give a fuck about babies nor children. He would 'get off' on watching others suffer, which why he killed Tiller in the first place. He, and all his X-Tian terrorist friends are no different than the Taliban in Afghanistan.

18. The fucker's absolutely right, too.
This may very well encourage more killings by the American Taliban.

23. Exactly. This really is a victory for him and his ilk.
That's why I think the clinic needs to stay open, or a bigger, better (and better fortified) one needs to open in Kansas. ASAFP.
