Kansas Abortion Doctor Slain at Church

The Associated Press
Sunday, May 31, 2009; 2:36 PM

WICHITA, Kan. -- Late-term abortion doctor George Tiller, a prominent advocate for abortion rights wounded by a protester more than a decade ago, was shot and killed Sunday at his church in Wichita, a city official said.

A City Hall official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak about the case told The Associated Press that the 67-year-old doctor was killed Sunday morning at Reformation Lutheran Church.

Police spokesman Gordon Bassham would not confirm the victim's identity pending notification of relatives. He said the shooting occurred at 10:03 a.m. and the gunman fled the scene in a 1993 powder blue Ford Taurus registered in another part of the state.

Bassham said no suspects were in custody. He said it is not clear whether one or more suspects were involved.

Capt. Brent Allred said police were looking for a gunman who fled in a 1993 light blue Ford Taurus registered in Merriam.

Anti-abortion group Operation Rescue issued a statement denouncing the shooting.

Tiller has been among the few U.S. physicians performing late-term abortions. His clinic has repeatedly been the site of protests for about two decades and he was shot and wounded in both arms by a protester in 1993.

He remained prominent in the news in recent years, in part because of an investigation begun by former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline, an abortion opponent.

how 'late term' is late term? how 'routine' are his procedures? ie: does he only perform them if mom's life is in danger, or will he dice up any 8.5 month old baby with a 15 year old mother who comes in with a credit card and asks nicely?

The rules clearly say:

Nowhere does it say:
"THREADS that the author requests to be deleted will be deleted"

POST'S not THREADS.

So, why did HR delete everyones posts in this thread?
