      George Tiller shot and killed at church

      News: http://www.kansas.com/topstories/story/833730.html

      WICHITA - 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.

      In the grave they chose to make their beds
      Now all that they've created comes crashing down,
      Down upon their heads
      Death is waiting

      Such a sad thing to happen and I'm sadden to hear it. What is even more disturbing is that the people who did this don't seem to understanding that they are not helping the pro life cause, but hurting it instead.

      Sick.

      He was serving as an usher in his church. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that they probably didn't have a problem with his profession.

      Well that's the problem right there on ecclesiastical failure.

      It's frustrating to be from Kansas when you hear about this stuff. This is what people associate the pro-life cause with -- rampant hypocrisy.

      As a fellow Kansan, I agree. Having Fred Phelps and Jerry Johnston is bad enough.

      This is appalling. Like most others who despised what he did, I wanted to see him shut down not shot down.

      Evil is no way to answer evil. I hope that those who lawfully oppose abortion do not have to face retribution because of this unlawfulness.
      Okay, I finally have a blog.

      Umm.. I think we're assuming that this was a pro-life thing. We don't know that yet. It could just as easily be a disgruntled customer.

      According to a radio report the person being held had attended services at the church the past few weeks.

      And while it is possible that this was totally unrelated to his work it is unlikely.

      Has anything like this happened before?

      Re: George Tiller shot and killed at church

      Is this the type of "action" Hellboy has been urging from prolifers? Since he seems to think everything else we do is actually "inaction". I wonder if he'd applaud the effort?

      The shooter is now in custody, and the pro-lifers, the church, have utterly condemned the action.
      Vigilante: When will Pixie realize she digs me Mononoke?
      Mononoke: Maybe never.
      Vigilante: I don't know if I can live with that Mononoke.
      Mononoke: Would you like to know? Try it.
      --------
      Mononoke is not being nice.

      Yes. Tiller's been shot before, and Paul Hill was executed in Florida for shooting up an abortion clinic in the 90s. I recently saw part of a documentary about the phenomenon. Gives us pro-lifers a terrible name.
