His name may have died from the media, but he will always be a hero, and his death an atrocity.

we do, and we always have. The man was a saint to keep on when he was getting all the death threats from the morons who finally killed him. So what's your point?

I never wanted anyone at DU to think that I think DU'ers don't think that Dr. Tiller is a hero. I just wanted to send it out, using this venue .... especially since the attacks on Planned Parenthood and women's health-care, in general. I apologize if anyone here has been offended because I know that support for Dr. Tiller and others is strong. People for womens health should not bury Dr. Tiller's legacy, they should exalt it. The fact are there, the testimony is there .....
