Bloody Kansas

Roxana Hegeman, writes:

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) – A Kansas judge’s decision to allow a confessed killer to argue that he believes the slaying of one of the nation’s few late-term abortion providers was a justified act aimed at saving unborn children has upended what most expected to be an open-and-shut first-degree murder case.

[…]

“This judge has basically announced a death sentence for all of us who help women,” said Dr. Warren Hern of Boulder, Colo., a longtime friend of Tiller who also performs late-term abortions. “That is the effect of the ruling.”

Some abortion opponents were pleasantly stunned and eager to watch Roeder plead his case. Tiller’s colleagues and abortion rights advocates were outraged and feared the court’s actions give a more than tacit approval to further acts of violence.

Some bloody sense of priorities Ms Hegeman has.    Circa one million unborn Americans die at the hand of abortionists each year, and Ms. Hegeman professes to worried about an increase in abortion related violence.   Earth to Hegemana!   There is a simple way to end abortion related violence.   Stop killing unborn human beings.

The thought that an American citizen might get his rights under his state’s law has poor Ms Hegeman’s knickers in a twist.    This maybe Ms. Hegeman would like to do away with Scott Roeder’s  constitutional rights, like the late aborti0nist George Tiller did with his hundreds of victims?

So question for Ms. Hegeman, if we could get five out of nine black robed justices on the Supreme Court to declare you a fetus, would it  be moral to kill you?(1)

I am not a lawyer  To examine the legal questions go visit, Patterico Pontification.

1.   Actually no.  While our justices in black robes may think of themselves as if they were gods, they but mere mortal human jurists.    They have no power more than any other person to decide what  is moral or not.   It is  not moral to kill innocent human life, even if  five, or more. justices in black robes think otherwise.
