The Death of George Tiller
One murderer killed another murderer on Sunday morning in my hometown.Wichita, Kansas had gained the infamous distinction of being home to one of America's foremost abortionists, George Tiller, a.k.a., "Tiller the Killer." Tiller was unjustly murdered about two months after being found "not guilty" (wrongly, in my view) for violations of Kansas laws in performing "late-term" abortions.
Doug Phillips' article is thought-provoking and insightful. He writes:
The tragedy is two-fold: First, by breaking the law of God (murder) in order to advance the law of God (punishing a murderer), the shooter demonstrated that he was a lawless individual and that, whatever his motivations, his cause was unholy. He cannot expect the blessing of God on his efforts, but rather the contrary. God was certainly capable of shutting down George Tiller without private individuals breaking His law by taking matters into their own hands. The ends do not justify the means. Pragmatic responses to evil produces short term victories and long-term heartaches.
Second, Tiller’s executioner has played into the hands of the community of abortion apologists — those in the press and elsewhere who look for every opportunity to shift the debate away from the bloodshed of babies. These individuals are hell-bent to justify America’s idolatrous practice of child sacrifice to the gods of feminist self-determination, and the wrongful killing of an abortionists only furthers their cause.
