Dr. George Tiller, the controversial doctor who performed late-term abortions in Wichita, Kansas, was shot and killed Sunday while doing a most uncontroversial task – serving as an usher at Reformation Lutheran Church.

The Wichita Eagle has coverage of his death, including a story about how people are remembering him.

President Obama said in a statement that he was “shocked and outraged” by Tiller’s murder. “However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence,” he said.


Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, also condemned the slaying: “People who truly believe in the sanctity of human life believe in the sanctity of the lives of abortion providers as well as the unborn babies who are aborted.”
