Scheidler refuses to identify the man other than to say he was not Paul Hill, who also attended the Chicago conference and who now stands accused of murdering Pensacola, Florida, doctor John Bayard Britton and his unarmed escort, James Barrett. But future inquisitors may not let it rest at that. Last week the FBI initiated a 90-day preliminary investigation into a suspected violent conspiracy among pro-life activists. If the investigation discovers additional evidence of criminal activity, a full-fledged inquiry could follow...
...With each blow . . . by the grace of God, he may confess his sins and be saved before expiring." Even some who claim to oppose justifiable homicide are notably shy about condemning the actions of Paul Hill.

In Pensacola, where a clinic opened for the first time since Dr. Britton's murder, a dozen protesters looked on as an officer whisked an unidentified man, presumably the doctor's successor, into the building.

Surely during the real Holocaust it would have been "justifiable homicide" to kill a German camp guard, if that would have slowed the feeding of the gas chambers...
...gunman shot and killed Dr. John Britton and his volunteer bodyguard, James Barrett, outside a Pensacola, Florida, abortion clinic. A suspect -- antiabortion activist Paul Hill -- was promptly arrested at the scene. The murderous attack was the second on a Pensacola abortion provider in 17 months...
