George Tiller A Kansas doctor reviled by anti-abortion groups for his work providing “late-term” abortions was shot and killed in his Wichita, Kansas church.

Representatives from Britain’s Abortion Rights and ProLife Alliance share their thoughts on the murder of George Tiller. What is your opinion?

Kate Smurthwaite
The murder of U.S. abortion provider Dr George Tiller comes as a stark reminder of the strength of feeling and culture of intimidation that has developed among a small minority of those who oppose a woman’s right to choose whether to have a child.

My first reaction to the murder of Dr Tiller I have to admit was not so much sorrow for the taking of his life and compassion for his family, but a sense of despair as to how it would affect proceedings at a Court hearing I was involved in the next day on behalf of the ProLife Alliance; how it would be capitalized on by our Department of Health.
