[quote]A man who said he killed a US abortion doctor in Kansas to save the lives of unborn babies has been found guilty of first-degree murder.
Scott Roeder had pleaded not guilty to murder, arguing that he committed manslaughter to prevent a greater harm.
He shot George Tiller, one of few late-term abortion providers in Kansas, at his church in Wichita on 31 May, 2009.
Roeder, 51, faces life in jail with the possibility of parole after 25 years. He is due to be sentenced on 9 March.
The jurors took only 37 minutes to find him guilty of first-degree murder.
He was also convicted of aggravated assault for pointing a gun at two church ushers after shooting Dr Tiller.[/quote]
37 minutes is surprising.
37 minutes? But court cases take as long as they do in 12 angry men don't they?
US Court System... is working?
Well, that's a first.
Wow, the world is finally making progress.
I know he only wants to defend himself but it's a bit silly trying to get off with manslaughter. You knew you wanted to kill him, you had a motive, you deliberately ended his life. That's murder, not just manslaughter.
Yeah, but what the doctor was doing was disgusting.

He's a [I]pro-lifer[/I], they don't know the difference.

no.
This country is too overpopulated.
Saw it on the front page of the paper this morning (I live in Wichita, where it all went down)
Got what he deserved for the first degree charge. There would have been quite an upside if he only got manslaughter.

If it's too overpopulated then why don't you off yourself?

Are you kidding me? This country isn't even close to overpopulated. If you really want to talk overpopulation, visit bangladesh.

Yeah, the bacteria are overpopulating.
Trust me, if we did over populate, we'd be extinct within 6 months.

what
He was trying to get off on manslaughter because he said he was saving lives in the process. The abortion doctor was aborting babies as late as eight or nearly nine months, which is just sickening. Personally, I agree with defendant, but I do not agree with his methods.

The US is mostly uninhabited.
That's just fucking retarded.
[QUOTE=Wakka;19925482]With genocidal tendencies.[/QUOTE]
It's not your choice if someone aborts their child or not. It's not your business, either.
Kansas has fucking 32.9/sq of population.

Fuck it, I'm supporting Wakka on this one.

I disagree.
You disagree because you don't know anything.
[QUOTE=thisispain;19925601]You disagree because you don't know anything.[/QUOTE]
No, I disagree because I believe you don't know anything, and making up fake statistics that would make CNN proud.
I personally wish the sentenced killer many long, cold and lonely nights in his toilet sized room. He should have not been such an idiot and go ahead with taking another humans life and to even have the stupidity level to say such a pathetic excuse in court, he knew when he loaded that bullet and shot the doctor what he was getting himself into.
I'm glad, another murderer rots in his deserved home.
