So what am I supposed to say about George Tiller?
Frankly I don’t give a damn. He was scum and he deserved every bit of what happened. Late term abortions in particular, are horrible and I find anyone who could do such a thing several times a day with the indifference of a professional going about one’s business, utterly revolting. The guy who shot him however, appears to have demonstrated a dangerous lack of appreciation for the rule of law, and for that he also deserves every bit of what is coming to him. We as a society chose to give abortionists the protection of the law, and that protection should not be broken until we as a society can articulate a sane policy for dealing with the practice. When men pretend to the authority to enforce God’s laws, it is blasphemy.
This is not to say it is categorically wrong to ‘take the law into your own hands’. It is justifiable when there is an imminent threat to you or people around you, such that a reasonable person can expect the police to possibly not arrive in time, but that has more to do with dealing with a temporary state of anarchy than with presuming the authority to enforce transcendent moral law.
