I think everyone knew this was coming someday, but it still made my jaw hit my chest.
Dr. George Tiller,
while attending his church today. His wife was singing in the choir at the time.
I'm having trouble sticking to my rule about not speaking ill of the dead at least in the few days after their death here, so I'm just going to say that I'd really like it if people stopped shooting up churches. A church should be a safe place to whoever chooses to attend.
I'll have more to say about this in a few days, and will especially be interested in who speaks at his funeral, but for now that is all.
Update 2: There's a movement on Twitter to wear white armbands tomorrow in memory of Tiller. This should be telling. And please, do go read the
- the sheer amount of rationalization and bias is staggering.

I'm kinda taken aback that this guy attended church. This leads me to believe that, though it was already a nigh-foregone conclusion, the man clearly lacked even the most under-developed of consciences or even a hint of shame or remorse at the things he did. (Let me make myself clear: late-term abortion is murder, period, and anyone that believes otherwise is morally-bankrupt.)
That said, shooting the ghoul down in cold blood is not the way to make things better, especially not in light of a recent swing in public mood trending against abortion in all forms. The guy who did this didn't really think through how the media is going to turn the Vampire Tiller into St.Tiller, Patron Saint of Martyrs and it certainly isn't going to stop another doctor from taking his place the next day.
So, hey, thanks a lot crackpot: your ill-thought, murderous, action is now going to make life a living hell for everyone else on the pro-life side of the equation, no matter how mild their support.

Church? Such an abomination. A baby killer church. Sort of like the child sacrifice of Carthage. As Cato the Elder said, Carthage must die. Even a pagan Roman knew that. Baby killers are outside of civilization. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

The biggest problem is that the left is going to try and use this to gut our constitutional rights, as they always do with stuff like this.

Exactly. I bet the lefties are secretly thrilled. This gives them ammunition to fight two of their biggest issues, painting pro-lifers as crazy and attacking the second amendment.

It's already starting. Go look at the
#tiller twitterfeed. Go look at feministing, which I won't link due to what I think we can safely call the douchebag rule.
None of the outrage on the right, the concern that this has set the pro-life movement back by decades, is being quoted by the moonbats. It's all about how pro-lifers are so violent and Tiller is a victim of a hate crime.

I think it'd be interesting to see the reaction should someone gun this guy down.

So... that's a 204th trimester late term abortion, or is it now called murder?
