Which received more front-page headlines, statements of outrage, condemnation, sympathy, and resulted in apologetic genuflecting: the murder of a 67-year-old man who made his living as a late-term abortionist or the murder and wounding of two young military recruiters on duty?

What do mainstream media and liberal bloggers find more newsworthy: a white, anti-government, schizophrenic “Christian” who murdered the notorious Dr. George Tiller or a black, America-hating, anti-military Muslim who murdered William Long, a young soldier?

Last month Scott Roeder murdered the abortionist “doctor” George Tiller, who referred to babies slipping out of the womb alive during killing procedures as “sloppy medicine” and admitted performing abortions up to the day before the baby’s delivery date.

Within hours of Tiller’s death, pro-life organizations, Christian groups, liberals, conservatives, feminist organizations, etc., condemned the act. The Department of Justice sent federal marshals to protect abortion clinics.

Within hours of Tiller’s death, on a Sunday, the White House released this statement:


Within hours of Tiller’s death, on a Sunday, the U.S. attorney general released this statement about a private citizen:


The day after Tiller’s death, Muslim convert Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad murdered Pvt. William A. Long and wounded Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula. There hasn’t been anything approaching the outpouring of media attention, condemnation, and sympathy Tiller’s murder generated.
