EBay to Abortion Rights Activists: No Auction For You!

EBay has stopped an auction to raise money for the legal defense fund Scott Roeder, the coward who alledgedly shot George Tiller in his church reports The Associated Press. An EBay spokesperson said, “Based on the details we know about the anticipated listings, we believe these would violate our policy regarding offensive material.”

Supporters had said they wanted to raise money to pay for Scott Roeder’s defense. They planned to auction off items including an Army of God manual, an underground publication for antiabortion militants that describes ways to shut down clinics, including with bombings.

Also on the auction list was a prison cookbook compiled by Shelley Shannon, the Oregon woman who shot and wounded Tiller in 1993 and was later convicted in a series of abortion clinic arsons and bombings.

EBay “does not allow listings that promote or glorify violence, hate, racial or religious intolerance.”
