Dr. George Tiller (1941-2009): Murdered Abortion Provider Remembered for Lifelong Dedication to Women’s Reproductive Health

Supporters of reproductive rights are mourning the killing of the abortion provider Dr. George Tiller. The sixty-seven-year-old Tiller was shot Sunday as he attended services at his Wichita, Kansas church. The gunman fled the scene, but a suspect was later caught in a Kansas City suburb. The suspect, fifty-one-year-old Scott Roeder, has a history of involvement in anti-abortion activism and was once arrested and jailed on explosives charges. He has ties to the right-wing separatist group known as the Freemen. We look at the life of Dr. Tiller with five women who worked alongside him to uphold reproductive rights: two women doctors who fly into Wichita every month to work alongside him performing abortions; two of the attorneys who defended him through years of legal harassment, one in Wichita and one in New York; and Ellie Smeal of the Feminist Majority Foundation, who knew him for twenty years.

This just pisses me off. He was a great doctor who helped many women. Ignorant bastards like Bill O'reilly insult him and call him a murderer and somehow try to justify his death. They don't seem to know how he helps save many womens lives. This Doctor even paid for a 12 year old girl's (who was *****) abortion and he even paid for the travel expenses. It boils my blood when I see people getting killed just because some nut doesn't like what someone else is doing. Dr. Tiller has went through many threats since 1975. His clinic was bombed and he was shot in each arm and yet he carried on. I don't know what will happen to America when this shit happens.
