A man climbed on the roof and stole a security camera from the headquarters of anti-abortion rights group Operation Rescue last week, president Troy Newman said Monday.

Newman said he was working Friday when he heard a commotion on the roof. Newman said he went outside to find a man on the roof tampering with the security equipment. The man threw his bicycle at Newman and fled on foot.

Operation Rescue has been receiving threats by phone, mail and e-mail following the killing of George Tiller last month, Newman said.

Scott Roeder of Kansas City is charged with murder and awaiting a preliminary hearing to determine if he'll stand trial.

"You try to let all that roll off you, but when something like this happens in broad daylight, it's completely brazen," Newman said.

He estimated the roof damage and the missing security camera at a loss of

1. Hmm-hmmm...........
Yeah, "threw his bicycle at him."

That's right. You know how many people in this country DIE from having bicycles thrown at them?

The statistics are shocking.

Good thing the guy didn't have a gun, huh?

Lying fucks....................

2. This sounds to me like a run of the mill theft.
Probably just someone trying to steal the camera to hock it. But of course OR is going to try to spin this as them being persecuted.

11. Agreed. Throwing the bike was lame, but petty criminals often are. n/t

4. Wow, that's his idea of brazen.
How did his organization describe the shooting death of a man in a church. Let's hope the that brazen is a baseline for the level of discomfort his organization receives..

9. Okay, did he throw the bike FROM the roof or did he climb down...
Edited on Tue Jun-30-09 01:42 AM by underpants
while the official guy was watching .... pick up a bike (his best means of escape) and throw it at the guy....and why didn't the guy give chase since he surely was already in contact with the police..... or maybe not

6. No, I did it...
You see I needed a new security camera for my home. Hell those are like 50 bucks each... so I got in my truck, drove up there, and tried to get the prize. Who knew those people actually worked late...

I wont be foiled. I need some windows for a remodeling project I'm doing around the ol' homestead and I plan to come back in a few weeks to get me some windows... and maybe a toddler and some huggies for the misses.
Peace,

13. During the campaign Republicans accused Dems of vandalizing their own Obama office.
Both sides accuse the other of this sort of thing. It makes for a better story that way.
