Actually, you should rearrange your thought process and ask the Tiller family why they felt it was necessary to close the clinic. If the pro-choice movement is so strong, then why do only 2 doctors perform late-term abortions, and why didn't they have the gumption to keep the clinic going? They were in this business for the money, and their moneymaker is no longer around. Nothing more, nothing less.

Oh well, as usual Americans support terrorist actions as long as it serves their motives. No shock here.

HUH? You derived such a conclusion from what part of my statement?

and there is the terrorist slur again! Could it be that people don't see this one guy as a terrorist but just a man that believed babies should not be slaughtered at 9 months for someone's headache? The law will take care of this man.

Apparently you missed the part where the pro-choice groups aren't "strong enough" to survive threats/murders. Dude is dead due to terrorist action and you seem to be okay with this, as the clinic is closed and your motives are met. Ends justify the means, apparently. Why would anyone re-open the clinic under threat of being murdered?

And it was also in reference to the poster who said this is not an act of domestic terrorism. I don't really know what else you could call "killing an abortion doctor to incite fear".

And palestinian suicide bombers are just individuals that want their land back and are justified in their actions. 9/11 plane hijackers are just a bunch of dudes that want the US out of their business. All totally justified. They are heroes and not terrorists.

I'm going to have to agree with the libs on this one. It falls under the strict definition of terrorism. Just because he doesn't wear a turban, trained in a third world dirtbag country to do the deed, or worship Allah, doesn't mean he's not a terrorist. But then again, every gangbanger would also have to be considered a domestic terrorist as well.

My motives? Keep dreaming. I haven't killed an abortion doctor, so point your fingers elsewhere.

Dr. Tiller had received thousands of threats, and was even shot in both arms in the early 1990's, but yet he kept the clinic open. His family reaped the benefits of this money-making machine. Their moneymaker is gone, and they closed the clinic. If they believed so fiercely in his cause, then why haven't they recruited a new doctor to take his place? I don't know the answer, only the Tiller's know the answer.

I'll ask you again: What part of my statements lead you to the conclusion that I support Mark Shroeder for killing Dr. Tiller?

Are you pleased that the clinic has been closed down?

That's untrue, what political goals due gangbangers have?
