FBI was warned about Scott Roeder

Before George Tiller was murdered, an anonymous tipster cautioned that he was in danger

The letters thread is now closed.

Roeder's biggest mistake

is that he didn't yell out "Allahu Akbar"...It makes it much harder to paint him as a victim now...

But this in the name of Jeezsus

makes it 'a-ok' with numero uno poster

too bad 12 more fed worker/or abortion types weren't around for easy pickings huh mr/mrs. #1? Terrorism is in the eye of the beholder

No one likes or wants abortion, you silly wabbits, but, but no one wants an unplanned , unwanted pregnancy, except maybe, sometimes, those that impregnate.

FBI was warned by someone credible, too

days before killing Tiller, Roeder tampered with the doors at another women's clinic. A staffer id'd him, and his plates, and reported his activity. By law, he should have been arrested. And yet .... he wasn't.

Crap. What a shame.

God knows how many bogus leads the FBI has to chase down, but stories like this are just sad.

"And who cares anyway, the "victim" deserved it." P_E

Wow, buddy. You REALLY need to post under you real name if you're gonna put out that trash.

If Salon wants to edit out obscenities, start with you.

Have we waterboarded Roeder yet?

The Republicans are big on the whole "let's torture terrorists to see what they know" thing.

Roeder has indicated that he knows about other terrorist acts to follow his murder. Why haven't we followed this up with non-torturous-waterboarding to find out what he knows?

What Does the Criminal Justice System Do to Baby Killers?

Typically, it executes them. The killer just did the taxpayers of Kansas a huge service, saving them millions AND doing the Lord's work.

Are you a Democratic plant trying to make the right wing look like a raft of Rasputins?

If you are, you deserve a raise. If not, post your real name.

So Feminazis Can Come Murder My Children? I think not...

DWG, you should plan for the future, my friend. Know that the LORD will punish you for your sinful support of the abomination of abortion. The LORD made woman that man might have pleasure and and a help-mate, and the psychotic notion that murdering babies to further the blasphemous project of undermining the LORD's divine plan in the name of "women's rights" (a heresy which seeks to overturn the God-granted dominion of Man over Woman) must be stamped from this earth by any means necessary. You have marked yourself as one bound for the flame.

Repent in the name of Jesus, and perhaps the LORD will have mercy upon you. If not, his chosen instruments will certainly destroy you, and then you will burn. Perhaps he will even send Scott Roeder? It would certainly be poetic justice.

Oh dear, you are a Democratic plant, and I've blown your cover. Sorry!!!! I'll be very quiet about it.

I Wouldn't Have Truck With Those Queer Loving Abortionists If You Paid Me in the Millions

The Democrat party is a hellbound train, and the LORD will punish those who have supported such iniquity. Now bow and scrape to your new Nigger God, but it won't save you from the Fire.

Once again

Take a look at the "planetary eulogy" postings. Read them again. Now hear my proposal.

I would pay Premium prices--maybe even more--to be able to block screennames and not see what posters I choose to block write. I do not come to Salon.com for arrogant, misinformed, vitriolic, idiotic right wing ravings, but that's what I get when I read the letters (or Paglia, but that's another rant).

Programming this should be relatively simple. A Premium member has an account... the member chooses screen names to block... the blocked postings by those individuals do not appear.

This is not brain surgery, but it would make this site bearable again.

Friday, November 13, 2009 09:07 PM

So, Basically...

...you want an option that allows you to go straight into Satan's waiting arms without having to hear all those pesky calls to repent and live a just and righteous life?

Is that you, Unabannable Bastard?

Are you using LORD as some sort of acronym? The mind reels.

Oh, brother - it's a computer posting just like Zorkna, and it's stuck in a hellfire do-loop.

Somebody knock the console with their hip, or reboot.

Yes, we worship Satan here, now get the fuck over it and get back to the insane asylum from which you've escaped. You'll be found soon enough, best turn yourself back in. While in the meantime I will shop for a new outfit for hell, I know we will be having a huge party knowing you will not be attending.

Yeah, Missing Out on the "Party" Where They Boil Your Blood Forever and Ever? Best Social Move of All Time...

So, let me guess, Teresa? You're another slutty whore protecting her "right" to use abortion as a means of birth control. Sounds like you need a strong man to keep you in line. Presuming you aren't some sort of nasty dyke or unmarried old crone, if you like, I can send your husband a handy pamphlet on Biblical means of correction. In the end, you'll thank me (or, if you know what's good for you, you will). Your life obviously would benefit from a little discipline.

Friday, November 13, 2009 09:44 PM

Pretty big balls

To presume to be a messenger of the Lord.

I'll just stick with plain old Fester.

Thank you very much

"If Archer could so easily figure out that Roeder was a threat to Tiller, why didn't the FBI?"....DUH?

You answered your own question. Archer knew Roeder personally and had a vested interest in getting dirt on Roeder; so, he had the incentive and opportunity. The FBI had neither......

It's all about gay abortion now, babe. Keep up.

Get one, you're entitled.

Slow down, motherfuckers!

This character is hard to channel in real time.

Oh PE

Are you thinking you can get sex for free again... hahahahaha, not for all the money on the planet, now get out of my way so I can get one of my 12 yearly abortions.

I love Satan....

Show some respect for De Lawd, pipple

Sweet Jesus, de Lawd hath made hisself manifest amongus here and we are all (include me, please, blaspheming Philistine that I am) dissin' his divine ass.

P_E, since you appear to speak directly for de LAWD (say it right or don't say it at all, fool) you must either BE the LORD or a close relative. Where the HELL do you get off telling people how to think -- unless of course you ARE the LORD? And if you have in fact confused yourself with the Almighty then may God have mercy on your soul, 'cuz your ass now belongs to us.

Now please carry on. There is none so blind as he who has put out his own eye.
