One of the great betrayals of the pro-life cause happened last summer when Scott Roeder killed abortionist George Tiller. Every right-thinking pro-lifer denounced that action, recognizing it to be fundamentally at odds with the nature of the cause we believe in.

IÂ’m therefore sickened to read about this effort to raise money for RoederÂ’s defense.

An Army of God manual. A prison cookbook compiled by a woman doing time for abortion clinic bombings and arsons. An autographed bullhorn.

These are among the items that abortion foes plan to auction on eBay and other Web sites in a fundraiser for Scott Roeder, the Kansas City man charged with killing Wichita abortion doctor George Tiller.

“This is unique,” said Regina Dinwiddie, a Kansas City anti-abortion activist who will sign the bullhorn. “Nobody’s ever done this before. The goal is that everybody makes money for Scott Roeder’s defense.”

Now I disagree with the notion advanced by one pro-abort activist that the auction could lead to more violence, especially given that there is more violence more often against pro-lifers than there is against abortionists and their facilities. But I do hope eBay refuses to support the auction, and that well-meaning pro-lifers avoid giving any support to the Scott Roeders of the world by coming to his defense rhetorically or financially.

And to those on the left who claim to be outraged – I’ve watched for years as Leftists have embraced killers like Mumia and Leonard Peltier, not to mention raising funds on their behalf. And for the last eight years we have sent he Left supporting terrorists and those (like Lynn Stewart) who aid them. Your outrage will have a lot more meaning when you side quits supporting cop killers and enemies of America.
