George Tiller shot to death at Wichita church | News Updates | Wichita Eagle

Quote:

George Tiller, the Wichita doctor who became a national lightning rod in the debate over abortion, was shot to death this morning as he walked into church services.

Tiller, 67, was shot just after 10 a.m. at Reformation Lutheran Church at 7601 E. 13th, where he was a member of the congregation. Witnesses and a police source confirmed Tiller was the victim.

I am filled with utter disgust at the cowardice of the people who caused this murder to happen.

A "pro-life" murderer strikes again. Aren't these extremist nut cases wonderful?

I hope this sicko does NOT get the death penalty. That would not be "pro-life."

He was a partial-birth abortion provider that killed babies late term. In terms of fetal viability he might as well been killing babies right after they'd been born. I don't condone it, but I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner--one monster killed by another. It wasn't right, but what that sicko doctor was doing was certainly no better.

Regarding the 'controversial' abortions carried out by the doctor's clinics:

Make of this what you will. Unfortunately (as you may have noticed of late) I don't have a lot of time for forum-ing ATM; just thought I'd share.

Dr. George Tiller Admits to Performing Abortions the Day Before Delivery | NowPublic News Coverage

"Notorious partial-birth abortion specialist Dr. George Tiller of Wichita, KS, was caught on hidden video admitting to aborting babies a day before the mother's due date. Students for Life of America (SFLA) today released the video which was made at the Feminist Majority Foundation's annual Women's Leadership Conference held at the National Education Association (NEA) on March 9.

The video reveals Dr. Tiller showcasing massive and graphic pictures of children with fetal abnormalities that he had aborted, so as to make the case for late-term abortions as necessary medical procedure. SFLA's Executive Director Kristan Hawkins, who videotaped the conference and interviewed Tiller clandestinely, commented on the gruesome pictures of aborted children Tiller showed, saying, "One had an extra arm: could not that child had survived and received corrective surgery? Was violently killing the child the only way to go?""

Kansas bleeds yet again.

First, abolitionists were the targets of those who would keep black humans in slavery to white humans.

Now those who would keep a pregnant human enslaved to her fetus commit another outrage.

WWJD?

Pro-Life supporters are really only interested in controlling the lives of women. Mysoginists and hypocrits. Why don't all these people who want to save the unborn, try helping out kids who are born? There are many kids in this country facing abuse and neglect, how about helping them out?
Because they really don't care about the LIVES of those kids, they just want to force women into the backstreet alleys and butcher shops of yesterday, where they can face humiliation, infection, and death.
They don't care about women, or their babies.
Why don't these people fund research to invent artificial wombs, or fetal transplants, things like that? Then maybe we wouldn't need abortions. Because they'd rather have women relegated into baby factories, that's why.

What would Jesus do, you ask? George Tiller knows the answer to that question RIGHT NOW.

He got killed in church you anti-christian bigot, the church didn't kill him. So why do you assume his murder was based on religion? What's the shooters name? What was his motivation? Do you have any details at all because none have been released yet that I have seen.

If there should ever be a statute passed requiring women, under penalty of the law, to carry their pregnancies to term, there needs to be another law requiring, also under penalty of law, anyone who has ever attended an anti-choice rally to adopt one of the children they fought so hard to "save" when they were fetuses.

In general, I think the death penalty should be dropped, but if I were to apply the death penalty, I think this case fits the bill. Doctors and nurses should not be intimidated from practicing medicine by wackos with guns. Nor should women developing medical problems in the later stages of pregnancy be, either. At the very least, this murdering lunatic should get life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, so that no medical practitioners or women exercising their Constitutional rights need fear what else he might wreck upon our society, once released.

No. What the doctor was doing was going to church. He was not a monster. He was not a "sicko." He was a murder victim.

What his murderer did was murder.

Murder by a sicko who was so "Pro-life" that he would kill for it.

This makes me more than ever say that the choice lies completely in the hands of the woman involved and that no man has the right to interpose his opinion on this metaphysical question upon her.
