Man accused of killing abortion doc says he's being 'treated like a criminal'

The 51-year-old Kansas City, Mo. man was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder for allegedly killing Tiller with a single gunshot as the doctor handed out programs Sunday while ushering at the Lutheran church he attended in Wichita. Roeder also is accused of assaulting two witnesses before leaving the church and driving away. He was arrested a few hours later.

Cheeky little bugger. lol
He shoots someone and then whines
Don't act like a animal and perhaps you wouldn't have been treated like one.
 
Because to me it implied that you believed the only thing Tiller's murderer did wrong was get caught.
He was wrong to get caught. What part of that do you fail to comprehend?
 
lolz.

I do agree with him though. There was lots of government corruption protecting Tiller from the law.
Interesting how this form of terrorism is permissable.
If this isn't demonstrative of terrorist sympathizer I don't know what is.
May I remind you that Tiller was performing these abortions for the last 30+ years in a conservative red state to which many wanted to do away with abortion all together were it not for abortion being a woman's right.
There was no corruption protecting tiller but rather there was corruption to try tiller in the first place, going as far back as evoking an 1887 law.

This form of sympathy for violent aggressors of abortion clinics is the direct result of the vilification and demonization of abortion providers.
Regardless of your stance on abortion, let's get one fact clear, it's a legal right, indifferent from the right to vote or the right to bear arms.
However abhorant late term abortions are is not the point, you can disagree and dislike the act all you wish to, however what the physician is doing is a legal proceedure that too often is neccessary.

So please, stop with this sick and twisted vilification of these physicians that results in such violence and murderous acts. STop terrorizing women that make the choice to get an abortion and stop terrorizing physicians whom perform the act.
If you got issue with abortion take it through the proper channels, not by this vilification and demonization of the people that have made a choice.
 
But, the premeditated murder part, the shooting a man in his church part, that you're okay with?
I have not said so, nor can you point to where I have.
 
He was wrong to get caught. What part of that do you fail to comprehend?
That's not what he did wrong, that's what he did right. What he did wrong is kill another human who he believes killed other humans. I think we should skip the trial and shove his butt in a cell for the rest of his natural life. Obviously he doesn't believe in the justice system so he should live by that code. No trial for you buddy, we believe you are guilty of murder.

It's interesting to watch the pro-lifers and their lawless commentary.
 
I have not said so, nor can you point to where I have.

Then what exactly do you mean when you say 'he was wrong to get caught'? One would think that if you truly did condemn this man's actions that you would say that he was wrong to do it. When you say that he was wrong to get caught it kind of implies that you don't see his actions as wrong.
 
I made no comment on that point, now did I?
Yes you did. What you said was that if he hadn't got caught then he would have done nothing wrong. Look, you got busted being an asshole because either you thought it was cute or you believe killing Tiller was OK. Which is it?
 
I have not said so, nor can you point to where I have.

Fair enough? But then I'm still not clear by what you meant when you said:

He got caught.

in response to jerry saying:

What did he do wrong?

Generally, after committing a murder, the only right thing to do would be turn yourself in. You suggested that it was wrong for Scott Roeder to get caught.

How was it 'wrong' to get caught?

And, just for clarification, did Scott Roeder do anything else 'wrong' on that day? -- I know, I know, innocent until proven guilty... But I think you understand the question.

You can just admit it was dipsh*t thing to say and we'll move on.
 
Then what exactly do you mean when you say 'he was wrong to get caught'?

Regardless of the particulars of his guilt or innocence regarding the alleged crime of murder, the direct consequence of his being caught is his incarceration.

At this moment, he has not been tried and is therefore presumptively innocent in the eyes of the law.

He is incarcerated. It is common to view such deprivation of personal liberty as a punitive measure. Thus he is being punished.

Why is he being punished? He is not being punished for any crime--by operation of law, that cannot happen until his guilt is established at trial, which has not happened. The sole remaining reason for his current punishment is that he was apprehended by the police.

He is being punished for being apprehended. Ergo, he was wrong to get caught.
 
I made no comment on that point, now did I?
If the only act which he did wrong was to get caught, that insinuates that the murderous act itself was not a wrong.
It's understandable if it was just a comment made for joking and you were not being serious about the topic, but what is interesting is that you are going back and forth here without trying to explain the comment about what you are obviously being pressed on.
 
No one has said what he did was permissible. In fact, quite the opposite. Why do you lie?
Read her quote without the vile hate goggles you have for me.
Talloulou's own words
lolz.

I do agree with him though. There was lots of government corruption protecting Tiller from the law.
