Well, here's a subtly measured and reasoned response to Scott Roeder's killing of Dr. George Tiller this past weekend from pro-life activist Gingi Edmonds…

Already, the pro-deathers are making absurd comments such as, "Tiller was truly pro-life, he helped women and was willing to sacrifice his own life for them!" Well, if pro-aborts can dub Tiller "truly pro-life", then in all fairness I guess it's safe to say that his killer was truly "pro-choice". He believed in the idea that if a person's existence troubles you, you have the right to kill them. He also obviously strongly felt that every abortionist should be a wanted abortionist. Is it not a personal decision? His ammunition, his choice? Everybody has an opinion… can't we all just get along? Find common ground, like Obama asked us to?

I mean, I personally would not shoot an abortionist, but who am I to impose my morality on someone else? If you are against shooting abortionists, then don't shoot one, right? Hmm, suddenly pro-choice rhetoric doesn't sound so warm and fuzzy and virtuous, does it?

Tiller was killed by a pro-choice act. Pro-lifers need make no apologies. Both men are guilty of bloodshed and this tragedy is a sad but all-too-real testament to the biblical truth that those who live by the sword, die by the sword.

Man. If there was a morning after pill for horrible opinions you accidentally read, I'd so be running to the drugstore right now. But, unfortunately, neither you nor I can ever go back and un-read that.

I'm sincerely sorry to have done that to you, but somebody did it to me first, and I'm just paying God's love forward.
