Any reason you edited out the second part of my post?

Just wondering...

I didn't. You made a quick addition after I had hit the quote button but before it would show you edited your post. Any specific reason you're being dishonest about it?

So, by your logic, if a 5-year-old gets his hands on a pistol on the playground and shoots another kid, he should get the death penalty? "Old enough to do the crime, old enough to do the time", right? :lol:

Since 5 year olds are also late-term abortion doctors that's a perfect analogy :roll:

Emotional diatribe. Are you denying the fact that 21-37 weeks after conception a baby is able to survive outside the womb?

Preterm birth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The earliest gestational age at which the infant has at least a 50% chance of survival is referred to as the limit of viability. As NICU care has improved over the last 40 years, viability has reduced to approximately 24 weeks,[65][66] although rare survivors have been documented as early as 21 weeks.[2]

This is not an abortion thread. Calling people scum is emotional nonsense and hardly conducive to intelligent discourse.

I do make an effort to edit my spelling :roll:

That's how we view Tiller's death.

I just wanted a few of you to see it from the other side for once :2wave:

How is it the view from the other side? Who has championed Tiller as a hero? I certainly haven't.

Someone killing babies inside the womb is no different than someone killing outside the womb. This selective outrage of yours is nothing more than a load of crap. Anyone who purposely kills children are scum,this is a fact.

Well you also added another sentence... and then asked why I didn't quote it. I didn't quote it because it was not there when I hit the quote button. :2wave:

Someone said that they thought he was brave in that thread (if that is what you are referencing). You are generalizing that pro-choice people see the man as a hero, and I'm willing to wager that if he was seen as a hero it is only by a small minority. I don't see him as a hero nor do I agree with his practices, but I certainly don't think he deserved to be murdered.

An emotional rampage? I took my opponent's ridiculous logic and applied it to another situation. I'm sorry you are having difficulty with this.

Mhmm, I edited as soon as I posted.

You should give people more than 3 seconds before you respond :2wave:

Actually, it's opinion.

Well, 1: Pro-Choice has been trying to defend Tiller since the shooting by repeatedly painting Pro-Life as militant radicals.

2: Yes he did deserve to be murdered, but by the state, not a random gunman.

Again, I find this amusing. You call for the ending of human life, yet fight to protect the unborn.

Quick question: would Jesus have killed Tiller?

I don't think all pro-lifers are, but there are certainly more extremist and militant factions of the pro-life movement.

Perhaps you should wait until your views are legislated before you call the man a murderer, when he clearly wasn't according to the law. You claim that pro-lifers aren't militant radicals, yet here you are advocating the man's murder by the state as if he did something illegal. If you don't like the way the law's are write to your Congressman.

A 5 year picking up a gun off the playground and randomly shooting someone with something he thinks is a toy is involuntary manslaughter.This would probably fall under constructive manslaughter It occurs while someone kills without the intent of killing while engaging in an unlawful act. This would probably be a misdemeanor. Which is 6 months or less in jail not a execution.

The life of the guilty and the life of the innocent are two different things.

You are aware Jesus chased out money changers out of a temple with a whip? He may have at least drove him away from the church he was attending, he may have made Tiller stop his practice of killing children or he may have felt that Tiller was so despicable that he may have killed him. Its hard to tell since Jesus never encountered such a person.

In both cases I support their right to due process ;)

You are not a Cristian authority to even ask, so I'm going to dismiss your question with "I could care less what Jesus would've don" :2wave:

Even some people who claim to be anti-abortion on the belief that "fetuses" inside the womb are children have jumped on the abortionist band wagon by labling Tiller the Baby Killer killer's a militant radical. Some have even called the man a terrorist.

Execution is legal and therefore not murder. Abortionist should know this since many of them like to remind pro-lifers/anti-abortionist that since abortion is legal it is not murder.

Sure they are. But both are living creatures. To extinguish the life of a killer is to be a hypocrite.

I am aware that I'm not a "Cristian authority". That's why I asked you, yet you deflect.
