I am closing this thread. The OP has confused people into thinking that these were Robert George’s current views. Instead they are in response to the following academic exercise in 1994:
Paul J. Hill, convicted of killing an abortionist and his security guard in Pensacola, Florida, has advanced the following rationale for his action: “Whatever force is legitimate in defending a born child is legitimate in defending an unborn child.”
For some who believe that the moral status of the unborn is the same as that of the born, Hill’s axiom is persuasive. We asked a number of people identified with the pro-life cause to respond briefly to the justification put forth by Mr. Hill for the use of lethal force against those who perform abortions.
Thread closed. Send me a PM if you have questions about this action.
