While I’m pro-choice, I can definitely understand the invective/issues the pro-life crowd have with doctors who perform abortions (especially late-term abortions).

To the pro-lifers, abortion is murder.

But it’s OK to murder the doctors who perform abortions? (In this case, Kansas physician Dr. George Tiller)

Huh?

(Please note, I’m not in any way implying that all/most pro-lifers will find this murder a good thing. But – in at least the gunman’s eyes – this doctor was murdered because he murdered. Where does the cycle stop??)

Oh, the rhetoric is already starting. Randall Terry, founder of Operation Rescue, led protests against George Tiller’s late-term abortion clinic in Wichita in 1991.

George Tiller was a mass-murderer. We grieve for him that he did not have time to properly prepare his soul to face God. I am more concerned that the Obama Administration will use Tiller’s killing to intimidate pro-lifers into surrendering our most effective rhetoric and actions. Abortion is still murder. And we still must call abortion by its proper name; murder.

Those men and women who slaughter the unborn are murderers according to the Law of God. We must continue to expose them in our communities and peacefully protest them at their offices and homes, and yes, even their churches.

There’s a lot to digest/comment on here, but let’s point to the less obvious: Tiller was killed in his church as he entered/was participating in/exiting the service (I don’t know which). How is murdering a man – even a so-called murderer – in his church “peacefully protest[ing] them at … even their churches.” (Emphasis added.)

Shooting someone = peaceful protest.

Houston, we have a problem…
