Okay, let's look at those two again, and let me ask...
why is one justifiable homicide and the other an act of terror?
Why would any of us fire and I assume kill the mass murderer who is killing child A, but not the one who is killing child B?
Tony please understand;
I am asking this of anyone on the forum, not directing it only at you.

Well here's the thing; to me, abortion is also premeditated murder. The doctor sets an appointment, the murder is planned and scheduled, then carried out. In fact, it is premeditated murder for hire, there is money involved. EITHER WAY, A CHILD IS MURDERED. So what's the difference, and why is Tiller's death not justifiable homicide, could his killer be not viewed as justified in saving children?
