It's such a waste. Why spend all that time hating someone.

If you don't want an abortion, don't get one. It's really that simple. Really. Killing someone... argh! But this is the same belief set that <3's the death penalty. I really really really don't get these people.

And I'm glad to find allies here and elsewhere on this one.

My friend just called me about this. I respected the hell out of Tiller; this just makes me heartsick.

The bile is just now beginning to flow from the usual suspects; just reading reports of it makes me lose my faith in humanity.

I've seen people trying to promote donations to Medical Students for Choice in his name. It's the best memorial I can think of.

Nice. I assume spreading/linking is encouraged?

I don't know how to describe this feeling. Battle fatigue maybe. Furious and sad and totally demoralized.

This is hideous and insane. I hope they catch that bastard and put him away for the rest of his narrow little life - not that that will bring back Tiller, or replace him. But it might stop whatever crazy shithead did it from trying this ass-backward stunt again.

I wouldn't count on that. This guy probably expects to be martyred. And a lot of people will definitely view him as such if he's apprehended and held to account.

Perhaps he should live the rest of his life as an indentured servant, with the proceeds of his labor going to fund medical student who are willing to perform abortions? Not that this would happen, but it's a nice fantasy.
