Abortion Doctor Killed in Church
AOL News ^ | May 31, 2009

Posted on 05/31/2009 11:38:34 AM PDT by Clintonfatigued

Late-term abortion doctor George Tiller, a prominent advocate for abortion rights wounded by a protester more than a decade ago, was shot and killed Sunday at his church in Wichita, a city official said.

A City Hall official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak about the case told The Associated Press that the 67-year-old doctor was killed Sunday morning at Reformation Lutheran Church.

Police spokesman Gordon Bassham would not confirm the victim's identity pending notification of relatives. He said the shooting occurred at 10:03 a.m. and the gunman fled the scene in a 1993 powder blue Ford Taurus registered in another part of the state.

Bassham said no suspects were in custody. He said it is not clear whether one or more suspects were involved. Capt. Brent Allred said police were looking for a gunman who fled in a 1993 light blue Ford Taurus registered in Merriam.

Anti-abortion group Operation Rescue issued a statement denouncing the shooting.

I did NOT assume anything. I never said I did! I don’t know who killed this guy, never said I did and I don’t CARE! YOU are the only one assuming anything and saying I said things I did NOT say. YOU can’t read. And you vote? Good lord, and we wonder what is wrong with this country???? You twist something and just won’t let go.

This is why forums like this are such a gigantic waste of freakin’ time! Nothing is accomplished, except to let some of you off-the-edge types bitch and moan. You never offer any information, you just attack with no reason those who might.

I’m done with it. The idiots have won. Carry on!

You can attack me for what I say, but I’ll be damned if I hang around somewhere and be attacked for something I never said. The left just loves fools like you when you prove you can’t even follow a simple discussion.

Now, go ahead and twist this NON CONVERSATION some more, I won’t be back to read it.

Just call it a really late-term abortion.

Too clever by half. The Left is going to go after normal church-goers and gun-owners with a fury now that they have some incident like this to use as a pretext.

Gird your loins, mark my words, as Biden might say. Here comes a "manufactured crisis".

Well said, and right on the money. I am just furious with our side and especially our ‘leadership’ who is still to this day governed by fear of leftist criticism. As though they aren’t going to criticize anyway. Wake up, everybody.

Does that qualify as a late term abortion?

“It may have been the father of an aborted baby.”

Hell, it ‘may have been’ Howdy Doody!

I have no idea and don’t care. I don’t speculate. There are enough of those to do that. There are too many nuts on both sides of this topic. I was answering a ‘ping’ and responded to the posters statement. Please notice I have NOT posted on these threads except to agree with a general principal by the poster.

They were already doing that yesterday. This won’t change that.

That is NOT my quote. Just to be clear, I am being attributed with saying things on this thread that I DID NOT say. Please try posting more clearly, everyone.

The statement, whoever made it, is correct.

“The idea that a late-term abortion doctor goes to church just boggles my mind.”

Why? Zero says he’s a Christian”!?

while I dont condone his murder, he is now facing his reckoning with his creator and being asked why did he gleefully murder thousands of innocent human babies who did nothing to offend him or his family!!

I’m not shedding ONE tear over this. I think of the hundreds of babies who will be saved because this monster is dead.

Obama would use it as an excuse to open the floodgates for abortion

How much more open can the flood gates be? The US has the most liberal abortion posture in the entire world already.

For the sake of accuracy

I think story should read alleged Doctor receives procedure at so called church.

Comming Attractions-
Mathew Sheppard Memorial Association of Media Drama Queens on full alert, ‘Lessons’ incoming.

George Soros Institute of tortured Logic, Columbia School of Journalism and the staff of MSNBC on conference call, as we speak, getting the exact phrasing on new meme connecting this event with the Supreme Court nomination.

NYT and Washington Post activate the ‘Abu_Ghraib Quick Response Team” promising to out do their previous records for continuous front page coverage of a story.
