\u201cReaction to James C Kopp Jailhouse Revelations\u201d (Buffalo News):<\/p>\n
Rev. Robert L. Behn, Executive Director of Last Call Ministries, a local anti-abortion group: \u201cWe\u2019re contemning the violent act. We\u2019re glad he confessed. He needs to own up to it. He needs to repent and seek God\u2019s foregiveness\u201d<\/p>\n
Lynn Kopp, stepmother of James Kopp: He said he didn\u2019t mean to kill but that he meant to protect unborn children. Isn\u2019t that a contradiction?\u201d<\/p>\n
Helen Dalley, president of the local Pro-Choice Network: I do believe that the pro-life movement has turned into a deadly movement for the extremists.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marilynn Buckham of Buffalo GYN Womenservices clinc: \u201cHe\u2019s insulting the people in this community by thinking that he could get acquitted.\u201d<\/p>\n
Above are responses to James Kopp\u2019s testimony on November 20, reported in Buffalo News on 21 November, 2002.<\/p>\n

Perhaps Buffalo News editors suppose that the reader imagines he is viewing some sort of balance here: two on the anti-abort side; two on the pro-abort side. In fact we don\u2019t have a balanced set of pictures. We have four contemnors: the first two are sympathetic contemnors of Mr. Kopp; the third and fourth are hostile, pro-abort contemnors. Those latter contemners are pure and unabashed pro-aborts who hate truth and despise the defenders of the innocent womb children. The first two ought to provide support and comfort to their fallen fellow soldier, but instead they bow to the pressure of the establishment abortion culture. They are traitors to the truth and their friend. <\/p>\n
Would that the one fool, Bob Behn, would have taken stock of himself and simply shut his mouth. Surely he had some local sodomites, baby butchers, or Democrats against whom he could have expended some jeremiads rather than against his own \u201cerrant\u201d fellow anti-abortionist. As it is, Mr. Behn appears to be more comfortable in the company of the two NOWists on the right than with those who honestly and sacrificially defend the babies. <\/p>\n
Mr. Behn had been all wrapped up \u2013 prior to the termination of said abortionist – in the effort to save the soul of the late Butcher of Buffalo. Mr. Kopp, on the other hand, was concerned for the bodies AND souls of the innocent womb children being butchered by Abortionist Slepian. Now, what we got here is a failure to communicate. Mr. Behn has a respectable role in trying to save the soul of the abortionist before he dies. No compassionate person who believes in a Day of Judgment wants to see even so vile a person as a slaughterer of thousands of innocents suffer the torments of hell.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, Mr. Kopp has acted nobly as a man who showed true compassion for the immediate welfare of those threatened with gruesome death at the hands of a wicked child killer. The children saved my Mr. Kopp\u2019s act of compassion were granted not only life in the flesh but the coming opportunity to hear the good soul-saving news of the Gospel. Now, we are not aware that Mr. Kopp, who arguably acted upon a higher goal, if not certainly a more courageous one, made any criticism of Mr. Behn\u2019s ministry and calling. Mr. Behn certainly condemns himself by his criticism of his brother, Jim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
