…by Robert P. George.
I am personally opposed to killing abortionists. However, inasmuch as my personal opposition to this practice is rooted in a sectarian (Catholic) religious belief in the sanctity of human life, I am unwilling to impose it on others who may, as a matter of conscience, take a different view. Of course, I am entirely in favor of policies aimed at removing the root causes of violence against abortionists. Indeed, I would go so far as to support mandatory one-week waiting periods, and even nonjudgmental counseling, for people who are contemplating the choice of killing an abortionist. I believe in policies that reduce the urgent need some people feel to kill abortionists while, at the same time, respecting the rights of conscience of my fellow citizens who believe that the killing of abortionists is sometimes a tragic necessity-not a good, but a lesser evil. In short, I am moderately pro-choice.
Robert P. George is Professor of Politics at Princeton University and author, most recently, of Making Men Moral: Civil Liberties and Public Morality
A big hat-tip going out to Northern Cross
I love this.
I would like to send it to some folks. but they wouldn’t get it, they’d call it threatening or hateful.
I for one don’t favour killing abortionist.
I preffere a daily beating for each “procedure” performed.
With barbed wire.

I say go ahead and share it, people may surprise you
I agree, I too dont favor killing abortionist…they will get their punishment from a higher authority and the pain from that punishment is greater than anything you or I could inflict here on earth!
It’s funny, the state can lawfully execute murderers who will kill people in or out of prison for the sake of human safety, yet an abortionist who kills children in or out of a clinic is protected…
