Online retailer eBay will not allow an auction to raise money for the man charged with killing Wichita, Kan., abortion doctor George Tiller.
EBay issued a statement Tuesday saying the auction would violate
its policy on "offensive material." EBay also said it would remove the items if they are posted.
Scott Roeder is charged with first-degree murder in the May 31 shooting of Tiller at the doctor's Wichita church. Supporters of Roeder said they wanted to auction off such things as an Army of God manual, which is an underground publication for anti-abortion militants that describes ways to shut down clinics, including bombing.
Dave Leach, an Iowa abortion opponent organizing the auction, said he does not glorify violence, but that eBay's decision did not surprise him.
