UPDATE: Christina from Real Choice cautions against automatically thinking that Tiller’s killer was from the pro-life side. He left a lot of victims besides the babies he killed.
UPDATE: Photo of Tiller’s body leaving the church: 
The Wichita Eagle is reporting that abortionist George Tiller was shot and killed today while entering his church.
Tiller has long been a focal point of protest by abortion opponents because his clinic, Women’s Health Care Services at 5701 E. Kellogg, is one of the few in the country where late-term abortions are performed.
“We are shocked at this morning’s disturbing news that Mr. Tiller was gunned down,” anti-abortion group Operation Rescue said in a statement on its Web site. “Operation Rescue has worked for years through peaceful, legal means, and through the proper channels to see him brought to justice. We denounce vigilantism and the cowardly act that took place this morning. We pray for Mr. Tiller’s family that they will find comfort and healing that can only be found in Jesus Christ.”
Obviously, this act was the wrong way to go about ending the evil of abortion. And of course, it’s sad that this man led the life he did and, barring a miraculous last-moment act of repentance, is now starting an eternity in hell. Having said that, it is good that there is one less person in this world who is willing to kill babies in the womb.
On a different note, I would say that any church who would have accepted Tiller as a member can not be truly considered a Christian church.
