A Reality Check And A Call For Christians To Condemn The Abortion Doctor Murderer

I have friends who are convinced that radical Christians are just as big a threat to the world as are radical Muslims.


Hugh Hewitt reminds of the absurdity of such claims and makes a righteous stand against the Tiller's murderer ...

From Hugh Hewitt:
The murder of George Tiller is the eighth time an anti-abortion extremist has killed since 1973, and each time the pro-life movement grieves for the victim and the family of the victim, and for the cause of the unborn which is deeply damaged by violence of any sort, but especially of the worst sort.  Christians especially must forcefully condemn that which Christ would certainly denounce. 


Meanwhile, the guy was not at all, simply, a radicalized version of a mainstream Fundamentalist Christian. He was a Christian to be sure, but he also just happened to be a member of the anarchist group, the Freemen:

It was not his first arrest.
Free Republic had this from the ADL:

Scott Roeder is sentenced to sixteen months in state prison for parole violations following a 1996 conviction for having bomb components in his car trunk. Roeder, a sovereign citizen and tax protester, violated his parole by not filing tax returns or providing his social security number to his employer.
He is a pro-lifer, except when he kills abortionists:

This is a reply he had at the Operation Rescue Site:

Scott Roeder Says:
May 19th, 2007 at 4:34 pm
Bleass everyone for attending and praying in May to bring justice to Tiller and the closing of his death camp.
Sometime soon, would it be feasible to organize as many people as possible to attend Tillers church (inside, not just outside) to have much more of a presence and possibly ask questions of the Pastor, Deacons, Elders and members while there? Doesn’t seem like it would hurt anything but bring more attention to Tiller.
His comment has since been removed from Operation Rescue's website.

UPDATE 3: Scott Roeder was convicted back in 1996 on bomb charges.
This guy was a nut... and a killer.

UPDATE 4: Roeder was a "Freemen" member:

Topeka, Kan. - Preliminary hearing for Scott Roeder, Freemen member charged with possessing bomb parts.
The Freemen are a radical anti-government group.

UPDATE 5: Roeder was on the FBI's list as a Freeman member back in 1996 when he was arrested:
