I Request A Name Change

This rant applies only to those who claim "pro-life" status and support a senseless war and other anti-life activities. For those who are "pro-life" in the full definition, I hope I do not offend you. You just keep on rocking.
This rant may also include some religious aspects. If you are of different religious beliefs, I truly respect that, and believe the same rights apply to you. And please bear with me.

So, here is our scenario:

Dr. George Tiller was recently shot dead at a church where he was ushering at. Dr. Tiller was one of the few doctors in the country who performed late-term abortions.

Now, you would think the people that certain "pro-life" touters would feel ashamed of this, or even outraged that the sanctity of the church was disrespected.
For some loud few, not so.

One "pro-life" organization has said that Dr. Tiller "reaped what he sowed". Bill O'Reilly has nicknamed him "Dr. Killer" since his death. And I'm sure many more have and will say more disgusting phrases about this subject.

Now, maybe I constantly give some the benefit of the doubt, but I expected you people to treat Dr. Tiller's murder with respect. After all, you do claim to be "pro-life", which means they are "for life".
But it seems you are only for the life of an unborn fetus, or at least those who agree with you.

If you are for the torturing of prisoners of war, support a war that has absolutely no meaning behind it, even think someone deserves to die for any reason, you are not pro-life.
Quit calling yourself pro-life, because you are obviously not. Instead, why don't you call yourself pro-fetus. Because all you care about is the fetus which is inside an actual living, breathing, thinking, feeling person.
Pro-life is perhaps the most hypocritical thing you could call yourself in this situation. You need to drop that title if you actually think someone deserves to die, even if they brutally raped and killed someone.

Also, it is clear that you have no respect for the sanctity of the church you so highly praise.
A person has the right to feel safe and respected when they enter any house of worship. A church, a synagouge, a mosque, a kingdom hall, whatever. When that human being walks into that church, they have a right to feel that they are not going to be murdered.

For those of you actual pro-lifers, or pro-choice, thank you for reading. For the hypocrites, I hope my message came across.

	Gwen Artax: 06/04/2009 10:35 PM I use the phrase "anti-choice" since many "pro-life" people support war and the death penalty.

	C-Style311©: 06/04/2009 11:44 PM I know what you mean about people feeling that they should be safe in a house of worship. Even if he did things that some people don't like it's not their bodies to protest over, kill over, or even make remarks like that.
	adametokillfor: 06/04/2009 11:52 PM THANK YOU for posting this. God. I hate hypocrisy. The "Right to Life"rs in town are the WORST. =/ Keep your rosary out of my goddamn ovaries. You are not pro-life. JACKASS.
	The Absent-Minded Professor.: 06/06/2009 11:47 AM My personal opinions on late-term abortion aside, it disgusts me that people who are so religious don't even know their own religion. If they really knew, they would know that killing in retribution is still considered wrong.
