What is your opinion of the Scott Roeder murder trial?

Asked by Dr_Dredd (10540points) January 26th, 2010

Scott Roeder is the man who shot Dr. George Tiller, an abortion provider, while he was attending church. (He has admitted this.) Roeder has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, and the judge in the case is allowing his defense attorneys to argue that Roeder believed he was saving the lives of unborn fetuses. What do you think? Is it first-degree murder, or should Roeder be allowed to use a so-called “necessity” defense?
