Update on the Murder of Jim Pouillon
By John-Henry Westen
OWOSSO, Michigan, September 12, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Fr. John Fain, the pastor of St. Paul Catholic Church in Owosso Michigan has expressed his sadness at the murder of his parishioner James Pouillon who he described as "a good Christian and a faithful Catholic." In a message to LifeSiteNews.com, Fr. Fain said Pouillon "was deliberately targeted for his fervent pro-life beliefs."
"This Friday, September 11, 2009, was a very tragic day for Owosso and for Shiawassee County, Michigan," said the priest. "On behalf of St. Paul Church, Owosso, I wish to convey my deepest sympathy and prayers to the family and friends of James Pouillon and Mike Fuoss, the victims of today's violent murders."
Like many pro-lifers who decide to expose the reality of abortion with graphic images of the babies who were killed, Pouillon faced opposition even from within the Christian community. "While many in the Christian community in Owosso strongly disagreed with his approach, they admired his passion, zeal and determination to protect and preserve human life, at every stage, from conception to natural death," said Fr. Fain.
The priest concluded: "Jim wished that many in the Catholic community, and indeed, in all of the Christian Churches, shared his unwavering views on abortion and dignity of human life."

NARAL FINALLY CONDEMNS SHOOTING OF PRO-LIFER, IGNORES PRO-ABORTION MOTIVATION (As you will notice in the article NARAL is lying by pretending that why he was killed is unknown even though it has been well publicized that the fact that Pouillon was pro-life was why he wall killed. NARAL knows or they wouldn't even be saying what they did. But given the decades of practice in covering up the truth about how many women have died by abortion, does this surprize anyone?)

In the words of James M. Pouillon's eldest son:
It will be impossible for some to believe, but my dad really didn’t care about aborton.
He did this to stalk, harass, terrorize, scream at, threaten, frighten, and verbally abuse women. He had a pathologic hatred of women: his mom, my mom, everyone.
After my mom finally left him and he lost his favorite punching bag the violence and abuse that was always contained within our 4 walls was unleased on the people of Owosso.
My dad used the pro-life movement and 1st Amendments foundations to defend him, support him, and enable him. He fooled them all.
He was at the high shool because my niece was there, and female family members were always his favorite targets.
Again, my dad didn’t care about abortion. He wanted to hurt people, upset people. He enjoyed making people suffer.
His goal was to be shot on a sidewalk. His goal was to make someone so angry, to make them feel so terrorized, to make them feel the only way they could make him stop was to kill him.
His pro-life stance was the most perfect crime I personally know of. He hid behind the 1st Amendment and was allowed to stalk, terrorise, harass, be obsene, ect. These things are crimes. Offending people isn’t a crime, and having different political views isn’t a crime, but he committed several crimes over the last 20 years and got away with it.
Yes I really am his oldest son. Owosso is now rid of a mad man.

I wanted to be sure this was real when I got the above comment so I followed the link to see who the person sending it was. But, it had no info. I thing googled to see what I could find & came accross an article from the Flint Journal website with the same statement. & they said they confirmed it was Pouillon's son.
James M. Pouillon criticizes father, slain pro-life activist James L. Pouillon, in online post
http://www.mlive.com/news/flint/index.ssf/2009/09/james_m_pouillon_criticizes_fa.html
Yet Pouillon's daughter had something totally different to say about her father: "His daughter said her father believed that as a Christian he should stand up for his faith, even at the cost of being persecuted.
"He died out there doing what he believed in," 26-year-old Mary Jo Pouillon of Owosso said at a memorial service Wednesday."
Debate rages on whether James Pouillon, slain anti-abortion activist, should be considered a martyr

I have no idea of what the whole story is. In a 1992 interview with The Flint Journal, Pouillon acknowledged years of marital problems, including a fight where he pushed his wife into a piano. But he also claims he changed.
I also have no idea of where the son is on the abortion issue.
I do know that the son has a lot of anger towards his father that may or may nor be justified.
beyond that I will not venture to speculate. All I know is that even that fact doesn't justify his murder.
