What an intolerant mean mad-dogs these pro-life lunatics are? People who will go to any length, even to the extent of defiling the sanctity of the church to commit murder in the name of protecting an unborn child? Icheoku says, if the life of an unborn child is very important why then take that of an already existing adult; a feloow human being? What a juxtaposition of irony? Icheoku says, may God punish all these American-Talibans, whose intolerance for change and modernity make them so filled with hatred for another human being, that they commit the most heinous of all crimes, MURDER! They should be condemned by all men and women of good morals and Icheoku here condemns them as the lowest of the low! It is abhorable as it is sinful to desecrate the house of worship with the blood of an innocent man, who was merely providing much needed family services to mankind? George Tiller, M.D. , 67, was shot in cold blood as he worked as an usher during a Sunday service in a church in Wichita Kansas - the land of Wizard of Oz! A very deadly tornado alley where every thing is virtual as flat as their minds and souls? A land which breeds this type of hateful human-being that killed Dr. George Tiller? What a shame?
Wichita city official confirmed that a suspect in the shooting to death of Dr. Tiller, has been taken into custody. Icheoku says, the suspect is such a good candidate for the death penalty; hence should face a speedy trial and executed immediately, for being such an anti-progress, crazy denigrate element of the society. If he has any beef with abortion or an abortion doctor, why didn't he just not get one or disallow his raped daughter to get one or force his niece who has been impregnated by her own biological father to carry the pregnancy to full term or better still, if his wife has ectopic pregnancy and her life depended on an abortion, to just not allow he do it but die, instead? But no, he would rather be shooting and killing people just to realize his dark idea of a society which does not perform an abortionm, even when it medically needed? What a rabid lunatic this lowest of dregs of humanity is, that wasted an M.D's life? And this is America in the year 2009 and such a level of intolerance still exists? Dr. George Tiller was killed because he shared a different philosophy with the killer on the right of women to have a choice as it affects their own body? Can we all just disagree without being disagreeable?
Dr. George Tiller who began providing abortion services since 1973; once acknowledged that abortion was as socially divisive as slavery or prohibition were, but said the issue was about giving women a choice when dealing with technology that can diagnose severe fetal abnormalities before a baby is born? According to the late medical doctor, "Pre-natal testing without pre-natal choices is medical fraud," and because of this his differing belief, he was murdered by a raving rabid anti-abortion lunatic. According reports reaching Icheoku.com, Dr. Tiller was was shot today Sunday May 31, 2009 as he served as an usher during morning services at Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita Kansas. His wife who was a member of the church's choir saw her husband shot and die performing services for the Lord, inside the Lord's church? This is a case where the Lord would have shown mercy and not allow this despicable piece of trash to have his way. And I am talking about miracle of life, that is?
It is noteworthy that Dr. George Tiller's Women's Health Care Services Clinic in Wichita, Sedgwick County Kansas is one of the only three places throughout the United States of America, where late term abortion services is still provided? With him now gone and possibly no one courageous enough to keep the place open, women needing late term termination of problematic pregnancy are now left with few are choice as to where to obtain much needed natal care? This is not the first time the doctor had been attacked but sure the very last and final one indeed. He was shot in both arms in 1993 by a protester who attempted to shoot off his hands in order to stop him from performing abortions with them? His clinic was also fire-bombed in 1985. In a statement issued condemning the shooting, pro-abortion group Operation Rescue said, "We are shocked at this morning's disturbing news that Mr. Tiller was gunned down. Operation Rescue has worked for years through peaceful, legal means, and through the proper channels to see him brought to justice. We denounce vigilantism and the cowardly act that took place this morning."
As Icheoku joins millions of all freedom loving people of the world in mourning Dr. George Tiller, we say let there be tolerance in America! If you do not want something, please do not force your opinion or choice on others; otherwise we all become the Talibans whose imposition of their jaundiced way of life and understanding of their Koran on other people is the cause of all the troubles facing the world today. This is the single most important reason why our boys and girls in uniform are in harms way in several places in the Middle East and Asia trying to improve some peoples life. This murder in Wichita Kansas of a medical doctor, is a murder too much and should and must be condemned by all. Dr. George Tiller does not deserve this fate and since when, did doing one's job become a crime to be punished with extra-judicial execution; and in cold blood, inside the house of God? The fury of hell awaits whosoever pulled the trigger that took the life of Dr. George; as well as all those in complaicity and those other very intolerant human-beings who would commit a more heinous crime such as murder because of their parochial and warped closeted minds on the rights of the unborn child to life; irrespective of whatever right the would-be mother might have including that of life? It shall not be well with the murderer of Dr. George Tiller. To the bereaved wife and family, Icheoku sympathizes with you on your tragic loss; and pray that God will give you the fortitude to bear the loss. Adieu George!

Obama decries murder of abortion doctor

41 Recommend The White House issued a statement Sunday evening from President Obama on the murder of George Tiller. Here's what the president said:
I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence.
In a rare moment of rhetorical agreement, organizations from Planned Parenthood and the National Abortion Federation to Operation Rescue and National Right to Life have issued statements condemning the killing of abortion provider Dr. George Tiller. "Justice for all human beings includes the lives of those with whom we fundamentally disagree as well as the victims of abortion," said Shaun Kenney, executive director of American Life League. "Pro-lifers by our nature and commitment to human rights reject violence as a means of resistance."
ReplyDeleteBut extreme acts inspire extreme reactions. Bloggers on the left have deplored "Christian fundamentalist terrorism" and accused "those wastes of humanity in the media like Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Michelle Malkin, Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly" for helping to "create and stoke a climate of hate and intolerance toward those who believe in a woman's right to choose." Malkin, for her part, warned readers to "prepare for collective demonization of pro-lifers and Christians - and more gratuitous attempts to tar talk radio, Fox News and the Tea Party movement as responsible for the heinous crime." (Read "Vatican Newspaper: 'Obama Is Not a Pro-Abortion President.' ")
Dr. Tiller, like others before him, represented a challenge to both sides. Late-term abortions have always been the hardest to defend, but he and his supporters would point to cases when the procedure, however morally troubling, was medically necessary. Murder is even harder to defend, and yet there are some kinds of killing we distinguish from murder. A battlefield slaying is one; killing in self-defense is another. To its supporters, capital punishment is a third way, and now we approach the logical challenge. If someone truly believes that abortion is the same as murder, then is not bombing abortion clinics or killing the doctors comparable to bombing concentration camps or killing their commandants? I've heard pro-choice activists argue that even pro-lifers must view abortion as something less than murder, or else they would be taking more extreme action to stop it. At the very least, they'd be arguing that abortion should be not merely illegal but criminal and that the doctors and even the patients should face jail time.
The mainstream pro-life movement operates as protest groups usually do - within the law, by peaceful means, working for legislative change on the one hand and cultural change on the other. But there is an uncomfortable consistency in the logic of the extremists: If abortion providers are mass child killers and the law refuses to act, the vigilante may see himself as the lone defender of justice - as vigilantes usually do. Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry, who in 1991 was arrested while protesting in front of Tiller's office, released a statement that began, "Dr. Tiller was a mass murderer ... he left this life with his hands drenched with the innocent blood of tens of thousands of babies that he murdered. Surely there will be a dreadful accounting for what he has done."
While his statement calls for "vigorous (yet peaceful) actions," his logic leads elsewhere. This is where President Obama's call for "common ground" collides with the reality of the issue. Some people are uncertain enough about the issue to be open to competing arguments and the weighing of moral claims. But some people are in no doubt about what they think. There will always be people on the left who dislike talk of abortion as a "tragedy" or support for restrictions on it, on the grounds that a woman facing an unintended pregnancy has enough challenges without navigating a moral, medical and legal obstacle course. And there will always be those on the right who dislike talk of reducing the need for abortion, since they view this as code for promoting forms of contraception that they view as equally immoral. To them, there is no "mystery" about when life begins. These positions are, as Obama says, "irreconcilable."
Mercifully, the abortion debate typically occurs within the boundaries a democracy sets, one of peaceful, if not always respectful, debate and advocacy on both sides. But what Tiller's murder reminds us is that in matters of life and death, the argument itself can become a matter of life and death
