Scott Roeder. Let me get this straight....

[nomaco-10]

He got picked up and detained for having a military assault rifle, explosives and a gas mask in his car and he was let go because of a technicality of the search and seizure act. Ok. I get it. It was a legal fuck up. BUT WHY was he not at that point put under surveillance and being regularly monitored by the FBI? Did Timothy McVeigh not ring a bell in any of their mushy, fucked up fascist brains?

He was then chased away by Tiller employees perceiving him as a menacing presence, what a few weeks or months before he came back and entered the Tiller church and assassinated him?

Subsequent to that, he used his own real effin' name all over the internet to espouse his fascist, radical anti-abortion views which were picked up and posted by none other than, guess who, free republic.

I saw on some cable network news show yesterday, that the right thought that Roeder, and those like him, were being unfairly profiled and were subsequently totally ignored for eight long years by the bush* admin because the true enemies of amurika were the "Anti-Iraq protesters and the peaceniks".

I'm angry and I want answers. We should all be a duly incensed by the last eight years and DEMAND TRUTH COMMISSIONS.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

1. When you understand that the victims are merely women and

women don't count -- except for certain tokens -- in this country, you'll know why it happened and why there is no official outrage.


Think about it.

5. Also add to my post; the HYPOCRITICAL OUTRAGE....

when FUX NEWS and the right wing of the pub party tried to make out that the Obama admin was gonna target and profile "the brave soldiers from the battlefields of Iraq".

The hypocracy and propaganda have been way too successful for way too long.

7. It appears to me that they did watch him in the 90's and ignored him after that

"In August 1996, Roeder was accused of having ties to an extremist group. In that hearing, Buchele released Roeder, saying Roeder had touched base with his parole officer about whether living with a man formerly linked to the Freemen, an anti-government, right-wing group, would be a parole problem.

Buchele had placed Roeder on intensive supervised probation on June 21, 1996, for an explosives violation and ordered him to sever his ties to violent extremists.

Roeder had been convicted earlier that month of felony criminal use of explosives. A car he was driving on April 16, 1996, was stopped by a Shawnee County sheriff's deputy, and law enforcement officials found a one-pound can of black powder, a crude electrical circuit, an electrical blasting cap and a fuse in the vehicle.

Officers also found a military rifle, a gas mask, mask canisters, two boxes of rifle ammunition, 20 rounds of pistol ammunition and a sheath knife."

8. "I'm angry and I want answers."

I agree. The deceased doctor's family should definitely demand answers.
