This is a link to the killing that took place in Kansas on May 31, 2009 of the famous abortion doctor by an anti-abortion zealot. I post this not so much in support of abortion, but as a good example of failed logic. People who are extremely opposed to murder based on religion are willing to kill for their beliefs.

    I agree with you about the tragic nature of the killing, but I am interested to find out how leading Christians will handle the negative PR of having their own religious extremism played out in the media. Christians have been comfortably pointing the finger of extremism at Muslims for quite awhile and now it is their turn to explain themselves.

    As tragic as this event is, it strikes a devastating blow to the anti-abortion lobby.  Barring the excessively few number of people justifying the act, public outrage is enormously high.  It seems George Tiller's final act was to functionally ensure abortion's presence in 21st century America.
