Dan Monnat and Lee Thompson, Dr. George Tiller's attorneys, issued the following statement today at the request of Mrs. Jeanne Tiller, the Tiller's four children and ten grandchildren:

"Today we mourn the loss of our husband, father and grandfather. Today's event is an unspeakable tragedy for all of us and for George's friends and patients. This is particularly heart wrenching because George was shot down in his house of worship, a place of peace.

We would like to express the family's thanks for the many messages of sympathy from our friends and from all across the nation. We also want to thank the law enforcement officers who are investigating this crime.

Our loss is also a loss for the City of Wichita and women across America. George dedicated his life to providing women with high-quality heath care despite frequent threats and violence. We ask that he be remembered as a good husband, father and grandfather and a dedicated servant on behalf of the rights of women everywhere."

We live in a VERY sick society. Very sick.

[JRandomFreeper]

He will be remembered. Tiller the Killer is his name in infamy. And history.

[Baladas]

Oh, he’ll be remembered for the butcher that he was.

[Friendofgeorge]

He wont be performing any more abortions!

[tobyhill]

The killing of babies create such an anger amongst most Americans and it's not unexpected that someone will take that anger to the next level.

[boxerblues]

I cannot condone his killing but I have no sympathy for the guy or his family

[Melchior]

What I can’t understand is why he was a member, apparently in good standing, of the Reformation Lutheran Church.

[Friendofgeorge]

House of worship??? Who the heck are they worshiping?

[big'ol_freeper]

There are liberal churches/segments of all religious faiths. As much as it makes my blood boil.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

What was it that Stalin said? One death is a tragedy, a million (or millions) is nothing?

[tobyhill]

I neither condone this murder but I will mourn the lives he took before him.
I feel nothing for his wife, kids, grandchildren, etc, for they knew who he was and what he was about.

[Jet Jaguar]

I will pray for his family.

[Patrick1]

I’m sure this has been posted on numerous threads about this murder but I will throw in my two cents.

First off the drive bys will call the murderer a Christian, which of course is an impossibility. Secondly the left will speak of this as some kind of vindication of abortion which as we know two wrongs don’t make a right.

We should oppose and mourn the loss of this doctor’s life just as strongly as he didn’t care for the babies he killed.

[PLD]

How about a memorial for the little babies that Tiller killed.. The church he went to took blood money from him I wonder if they ever thought about that.. He is now talking to his lord the Devil and the Devil is saying well done stupid here is where you will burn for eternity..

[Jim Noble]

This is particularly heart wrenching because George was shot down in his house of worship, a place of peace a synagogue of Satan.

[tobyhill]

I don't think I have the ability to pray for his family for they knew who he was and what he was about. Maybe they should begin by praying for themselves first.

[MarineMomJ]

Although I would never sanction killing of this doctor, I still say, “Good Riddance!”

[Jim Noble]

House of worship??? Who the heck are they worshiping?

Moloch.
