Suspect arrested in connection with slaying of abortion provider (Child Murderer) George Tiller
The Wichita Eagle ^ | May 31, 2009 | BY STAN FINGER AND JOE RODRIGUEZ

Posted on 05/31/2009 12:37:08 PM PDT by upchuck

The suspect in this morning's fatal shooting of George Tiller is in custody, according to emergency dispatchers.

Authorities have yet to release more information about the arrest. Wichita police have scheduled a 4 p.m. news conference to discuss the case.

Police had said they were looking for white male who was driving a 1990s powder blue Ford Taurus with Kansas license plate 225 BAB. The vehicle is registered to an owner in Merriam, which is in the Kansas City area.

Wichita police Capt. Brent Allred said that several law enforcement agencies -- including the FBI and the KBI -- have been called in to help with the case.

"This is going to be a larger search than probably maybe just Wichita that we're looking for this individual," Allred said. "So we've got the resources coming in to help us with this investigation."

Allred said that no one else was injured in the shooting. He would not say how many shots were fired. He said it's unclear whether the shooter exchanged any words with the victim.

"We've got several people going downtown," Allred said. "This is going to be an investigation that is going to take a little while to get some of that information out."

where do you see anyone celebrating it?

It may not be a "celebration," but look at post #8.

And now Napolitano will roll out that ‘profile’ again.

"I can’t believe the fools on here celebrating this."

Let's see here. There were 3 post prior to yours, and I didn't hear a word about them celebrating anything.

I can't believe your already protesting something so soon, that hasn't yet occurred.

I for one don't agree with the man or woman for shooting this man, but why don't we judge the shooter, in comparison to all dead infants this one man has made his living for the past few decades?

The so called victim has made his living off killing unborn children, and he's had the protection of the federal government. But we're not allowed to bring that up now are we? In my opinion the man is guilty of far more than his assassin.

Yet still, I don't celebrate his death.

>I wonder how he rationalized what he was doing with the Christian faith.<

There were many Christians who voted for Obama who reasoned that abortion was just one minor issue in the messiah’s all important platform of hope and change.

"Police had said they were looking for white male..."

Could be Timothy McVeigh.

Ready the chamber. Its a white guy, and possibly someone professing to believe in G-d. No need for any lengthy appeals. A trial might even be superfluous since a woman's sacred constitutional freedom to kill her baby may have been threatened.

Any tears shed by me, will be for the thousands of babies that monster killed. That mass murderer of children will finally pay for what he did for money, even if justice only came when he was judged by God. I could barely look at Tiller in news footage when he was on trial recently. He looked like he had the devil right behind his eyes. Evil man. Good riddance. He knows now, that abortion is murder. On another thread, a poster wrote that Tiller is estimated to have killed 350,000 of God’s children. I’ll not be sad that Tiller has met his Maker. It was God’s will, has anyone thought of that? God wanted him stopped. How about that for a reason Tiller is dead? Maybe God was tired of waiting for Tiller to get a conscience. All he wanted was blood money. What a monster.

Interesting you are using a word derivative of Jehu (Yahoo). He was exactly called upon by God to execute vengeance upon the wicked house of Ahab by putting Jehoram and many other of the most abominable and guilty to death. (II Kings 9 ff.)

Don’t know, having found out about his death from *this* thread, but with a moniker like ‘Tiller the Baby Killer’...It’s hard to nelieve it could be for any other reason. tho7gh he *is* known for using the money he made to buy politicians..Like the governor of his state.

A church is no longer a gun-free zone in many parts of the country unless there is an official sign posted that states so.

Personally, I plan to mourn Tiller’s death - as soon as I finish grieving over those of, say, Carlos Gambino and John Gotti. I should get around to it by August 84th. Tiller’s relationship with God is none of my business and I would no more speculate upon it than I would try to fly off a tall building, but I see no human diminishment by his absence.

Was it an ACORN member or just someone on the O payroll from afar?

Interesting. I wasn’t aware of where the word came from.

Why is the FBI in on a local murder? Do they investigate every murder in Chicago or DC?

“This plays very conveniently into the hands of PP and NARAL. Tiller was getting to be a liability. Now he’ll be a martyr.”

Of course. With new polls showing that minds are changing and hearts are turning away from infanticide, something had to be done. Seems rather convenient.

“Why is the FBI in on a local murder?”

That’s too easy....

Killing a baby-butchering, Democrat-supporting abortionist is a “Hate Crime”.

Like MURDER isn’t enough of a crime, we’ll stack on a few “hate Crimes” for good measure.

Written by a "noob".

Coincidence?

Well, if the media wants to go after the pro-life movement because one white man killed another man....then the media should also go after EVERY Muslim because a few Muslims killed thousands of American citizens. Who knows...Tiller the killer may have cut the guy off on the freeway...who knows? And I for one don’t give a shit!

What’s the difference? No one can slam a whole group of people because of one man’s action...that is ridiculous. It’s time we stand up and start telling people who attack us as being racist, and blah, blah, blah.....to go F%#*-off. The Lib-evils will only push us as far as we allow them to push us!!!

How many murders happen in Chicago, by black gang members “every day” of the week? How many???? Does this mean every black man is a killer?

Indeed. The murder of a serial baby killer is probably the only crime that many liberals would consider worthy of the death penalty.
