I am not saying that there was a death warrant out for him issued by the Anti-Choicers, but I doubt Roeder would have just shot him had he not had some kind of pro-lifer affiliation. Perhaps if Roeder had gone on a killing spree in which he killed both sides alike, there would be less suspicion as to what was driving him to do what he did. However, since he singled out this one man and knew where to find him to do it, I have little doubt what was fueling his drive to commit murder.</p> Dr Tiller was shot in my home town and I think that the pro-life movement had alot to do with it.

Has the MSM started calling Roeder a terrorist yet?

….well, except for the ones who went on to say “….and it’s also bad PR” or “….but don’t forget the 60000 BABEEZ TILLER KILLED BY SUCKING THEIR BRAINZ OUT!!!!111!!” which sort of spoils the effect, no?

I also read the other day (but I’m too lazy to hunt up the URL just now) a column arguing that the MSM has made little mention of Roeder’s Christianity, as such, but the guy who shot up the mil recruitment office is always identified as Muslim.
