George Tiller, who was shot and killed in Wichita, Kansas
And ABC 'got it right.' George Tiller believed in the DEMOCRATIC society of CHOICE we all live in. He wasn't afraid to stare down death in the face of INTIMIDATION and FEAR. The anarchy of the Religous Right and its zealotry AT ANY COST, is what killed George Tiller.

The controversial abortion doctor who was gunned down in a Wichita church Sunday persevered, even though "he existed in a climate of intimidation and fear," according to his lawyer and friend....
See, it goes like this. It doesn't matter if you have a Democratic and Free country, if the people don't practice that freedom. Dr. Tiller believed any woman was intelligent enough to handle her life without the 'rule of law' governing her uterus.
He believed in women and he bravely stood up for the rights this society granted them. People are supposed to live their lives within the boundaries of law without inhibition by the government through theocratic dogma.
Dr. Tiller made sure women that chose to have an abortion were granted safe and competent medical attention. He did nothing "W"rong, yet while demanding the law reflect Extremist Christian Values his life was taken from him. THAT, is oppression.
Abortion clinics and hospitals need to have 'stepped up' security. This is a form of HOME GROWN terrorist. Where is the FBI today? Saving George Tiller's life? No. Nowhere to be found.
Scott Roeder was a KNOWN threat to society, known to be capable of violence, so where was the FBI? Maybe to be protected from death, a USA citizen has to be the focus of a 'sting' operation !!!

Scott Roeder presented a "threat of danger to the public," a Shawnee County District Judge said in 1996 of the man now accused of shooting abortionist George Tiller.
"There is an indication that you have not been willing to conform your conduct" to the law, judge James Buchele told Roeder at his sentencing for possessing explosives.
Roeder, 51 of Merriam, was arrested in Johnson County Sunday afternoon in connection with the shooting death of Tiller at a Wichita church service earlier in the day.
In 1996 stories in The Capital-Journal, law enforcement officials described Roeder as a man who disregarded American law, while his father termed him a "loving" but "obsessed" man who wouldn't hurt a living thing.
Roeder had associated with the Freeman movement - a right-wing, anti-government group - causing then Shawnee County assistant district attorney James Brown to label Roeder a "substantial threat to public safety."
"This defendant has chosen to exempt himself from our laws," Brown said during the August 1996 sentencing hearing. "He doesn't recognize your authority."
The Freeman group had been in the news at the time as a month-long standoff took place at a Montana ranch between federal authorities and members of the group....
