Murder of Late-Term Abortion Doctor George Tiller

Right to Life people have no concept of problems that create the need for late term abortions. I worked in a state for years to give men and women the right to have the sterilization procedures and even the information of where they could go to get this information. The right for citizens to get accurate birth control information and the right to have legal abortions in the 1st trimester. These are needs that today we take for granted, but it wasn't to long ago when states prevented these things. I was very relieved when Roe vs Wade was made law.

Medical science has given us an intellectual insight into all of this and in my opinion when I ran into circumstances where a 12 or 13 yr. old child had been raped most of her life by drunken fathers, brothers or uncles and no one notices or cares until the swollen belly is obvious and you have seen the results of defective children with horrible disabilities, should we punishing or kill a doctor doing the procedure that can prevent all of these terrible, overwhelming affects?

Every one I know that has ever had an abortion, even in the 1st trimester, lives with this forever. We must in our society work to prevent abortion. Work to help every couple to create a human being that they will make every effort to raise and nurture that child with love and a safe environment, including an education that he/she will become the best he or she can be.

I am against raising wonderful children and sending them off to wars to be killed, too. We have got to do better, we have got to work together and make the world and all its people have the rights we have in our country and make sure we don't lose what we have so painfully learned from our past oppressing laws. Women have rights over what happens to there bodies, couples have rights to determine & control through safe birth control methods, how many children they can raise to be successful human being and our children should have all the facts of procreation at puberty and the many ways to prevent pregnancy and why.

One more thing: All children should learn from the cradle up what is appropriate touching of their bodies and what is inappropriate. We should make sure that no child must go through this kind of abuse no matter where in the world he or she lives.

Bottom line; Tiller was a killer. You live by the “sword” you die by the “sword.”

I have no sympathy for money grubbing doctors acting like they are doing something good for people (women) but they are no better than a televangelist ripping off widows and orphans for their last cent!

“Pro choice/death” people are such hypocrites – never seeing the forest because of the tree of their selfishness. Never shedding a tear for the children torn to shreds by this man’s seared conscience.
