Who's worse? Abortion doctor or abortion doctor killer?
I have my opinions, but I'm curious as to what others think of this situation.

isnt' this a rather leading poll question - at least if you read beyond the first "." in each? I'm sure the abortion doctor wasn't performing late-term abortions.

Not even close. The guy who killed the abortion doctor is way worse.

Actually, he was. He was one of the few abortion doctors that did this.

I'm against abortion (not legally but would never want someone to do it) but have to say the Pro-Life movement is hypocritical, self-serving, and just plain stupid.

fair enough. i actually hadn't even informed myself about the story at all yet. i saw something on the news for 2.3 seconds but didn't read up on any of the particulars. just looked at the story on cnn and was coming here to say "whoops...guess i was wrong about that."

This doctor did perform late-term abortions. He was one of the few in the nation, which is why he was targeted. The gist of the law is that you have to have health reasons to perform late-term abortions. The doctor used that law to say that anyone with physical OR mental health issues was eligible for late-term abortions. He's been charged with crimes several times over this interpretation of the law, though I'm not sure if they ever got a conviction on those charges. |

Not something I find particularly lovely - but I'm not a medical doctor - if the state allows it, he's acting within the scope of the law.
If he was convicted I presume they would have stripped his license so I'm guessing they weren't. Like I said - not something I find lovely, or agree with, particularly if the interpertation was "stretched", but I don't believe vigilante justice has any place within modern society. Breaking the social contract and all that. I hope they put a needle in this scumbag's arm.

This poll is almost as retarded as you are. Quote:
How about, regardless of the "manner", killing other humans is wrong. Does one have to be worse than the other? Did you need a poll to see which people agree with your personal feelings (which are fairly evident)? Can I see your statistics that say most of his abortions were borderline mental health of the moms? If he submits these reports to some agency, surely there must be some numbers (not pulled from the conservative blog of the day you are following) that say how many of these fetuses are viable (or terminal, such as Trisomy 18)...

I think that was the point of the charges. The law enforcement wasn't sure whether his interpretation was correct or even legal. I suppose it was as long as the charges didn't stick. He wore a bulletproof vest a lot of times when he was in public and had been shot in the 90s. He certainly was aware of the danger involved. |

Could I just put in a request that everybody make sure this devolves into an entertaining flamewar, and no the predictable and painfully dumb one we usually have about this subject?

Most pro-life people, including this killer, don't care about saving babies. They care about telling other people what they can and can't do with themselves.

Sadly I predict nothing new in this thread. Though I expect the flamewar will just be people piling on MBBF until he declares that we're all misinterpreting him and disappears. Maybe an abortion flamewar picks up after that. Though really I have to give MBBF credit here. Usually someone else starts a topic, there is some discussion and MBBF ruins the thread with some unbelievably asinine opinion/statement, or just as often, a set of "documented facts" that he refuses to link to anyone else, and some otherwise perfectly normal topic devolves into most people rolling their eyes and just backing away to watch the train wreck that follows MBBF everywhere he posts. Here, we've reached a new level of efficiency, just skipping right over any semblance of normal discussion, just opening things up right there in the initial post/poll with something so fucking asinine that there's really no other reasonable response to this topic BUT to flame him. Well done. Bravo. |

It's painfully obvious what the answer is. If the abortion doctor would have just had a price cut like everyone else none of this would have happened.

I don't think we can accurately judge this without some kind of VORB analysis of the fetus' in question.

When abortions become illegal maybe it'll be a draw, but the guy is doing his job. This is an absurd question. Now maybe if you asked who's worse, a guy pushing heroin or the guy who killed the heroin pusher, then that is a different story since you know, both did something illegal.
Radical Christians are just as bad as Radical Muslims, but let's be honest, it isn't some widely held belief because one is perdominantly white. |
