"I think we can all agree that the man who shot Dr. George Tiller is a domestic terrorist. I know what Republicans think we should do with accused terrorists -- waterboard them. So, let's get it on."

I disagree with your synopsis altogether. The man who shot Dr. Tiller is NOT a domestic terrorist. He is a man who felt compelled to defend 35,000 innocent lives by destroying the person who destroyed them. Sort of like those who fight in wars defending the country they love.

If a man were holding a gun to your daughter's head and threatening to blow her brains out, you might feel entirely justified in blowing his brains out first. At least, your daughter would hope you came to her rescue. All of those innocent abortion victims did not have anyone come to their rescue in time.

Just because something is legal doesn't necessarily make it right. Just like, just because something is illegal doesn't necessarily make it wrong. As human beings we have to decide if we think life is worth defending.

I don't believe I could ever take another person's life--except in an extreme circumstance like the above mentioned, but defending life is ALWAYS right.

Interrogation methods are used for the express purpose of gaining information that one does not already have. I'm not sure what information you would want to be extracting from Dr. Tiller's killer that you think waterbo arding, or any form of interrogation, would be needed. Right or wrong is between him and God. Our law has rules and those rules must be used to judge this case. He may be killed as a result of his actions or he may spend the rest of his earthly life in jail. Those are consequences he has to face. One just wonders how many people will grow up to make new laws in the future as a result of his actions.
