The mainstream media and pro abortion lobbyists will capitalize on this and already are doing so. Not because they truly feel for Tiller's grieving family, or because of the cold-blooded murder itself, but they want to portray the nonviolent pro-life movement in a blood thirsty and vengeful light. What you won't hear is that fact that Tiller's killer was not affiliated with any pro-life group or movement, and that his wife has reported that he has a history of mental illness.
The mainstream media and far left extremists will paint Tiller in the light of a martyr because of this. Despite the cold-blooded, unjust and hypocritical murder, Tiller was a baby killer. That doesn't change because of his murder. The fact that this is going to be overlooked and people won't know the real truth about Tiller is what concerns me.
Tiller was put on trial for criminal charges of illegal abortions. The law in Kansas says that you are supposed to have a peer physician sign off on late-term abortions, and that the reason must be to keep the woman healthy. This was the loophole Tiller was using, and the "peer physician" that signed off on these abortions actually had a close personal relationship with Tiller and for this he was put on trial. Keep in mind that many of the late term abortions that Tiller performed were on babies that are 21 to 27 weeks old. See below for a visual.

I do not point out this things to endorse the killing of Dr. Tiller. It was an abhorrent act. But people who are watching the news now need to know the truth about Tiller, and not just that he was a martyr for the abortionist cause.
Just as the killing of George Tiller is a hypocritical and unjust act, so is the hypocracy of Barack Obama and the mainstream media. The outrage they have expressed over the killing of Tiller is justifiable and credable. However, their utter silence in the past on the record of Tiller killing babies is NOT. These late-term fetuses are humans. Late-term and partial birth abortions are ILLEGAL in his practicing state of Kansas and in most state with the exception of the previously mentioned mental health clause. This means that in the eyes of the laws these late term fetuses are people. How is the killing of one human any worse than the killing of 5000?
