if tiller is a hero then so is bin laden

[NoGuff]

All these people need a smack upside the head. Tiller was no "hero." If that's their definition of hero then their moral scale is fucked up.

My heroes are military servicemen, police, and firefighters. NOT baby-killers.

George Tiller was an evil person. While I strongly condemn his killing, he was really a baby killer. He killed a patient, one baby survived an abortion that he attempted and lived three years untill injuries caused by Tiller ended her life.
