While trying to understand what happened to the murdered doctor in Kansas today I found this Bill O'Reilly report about Dr. Tiller. I wonder if this and similar media reports such as this one contributed to the murder of the doctor.

I looked at the video and was shocked. While no one who is pro life could condone the murder of Dr Tiller, it is said that "Those who live by the sword, die by the sword". Those who engage in evil acts eventually bring evil onto themselves - history shows us that. In effect, Dr Tiller was engaged in the evil act of murdering almost full term babies by means of burning off their skin with saline solution, which is but one means of killing almost full term babies. Maybe some good may come from his death by highlighting this dreadful suffering that is brought on innocent babies by doctors who know better than anyone the pain and suffering they bring on their innocent victims for money. The brain and spinal cord as these doctors know is the first thing formed in a baby, but they draw a blind eye to the abortion methods, such as crushing the baby's skull. Journalists cannot remain silent but must report on all inhumane acts against our fellow human beings. Surely a baby is worth more than a whale but it doesn't seem so.
