He was a family friend, and he was truly, deeply committed to a woman's right to choose. He didn't do this to roll in the money, or for personal glory. He didn't stop when he was bombed, or when he was shot in both arms because he knew nobody else was willing to cowboy up and help women like he did.

And Operation Rescue can fucking 'denounce' the murder all they want. But they constantly denounced him as a 'murderer' and wished that 'God would take justice.' They picketed his clinic, yes, but also his home and church and his kids' schools. They told their sheeples that Dr. Tiller awarded vacations to his staff based on how many abortions they performed. So, they and their ilk may try to rest easy in the knowledge that they didn't pull the trigger, but they sure as hell set things in motion. Fuck. Them.

Oh, and thank you for this post.
