Dr. George Tiller was assassinated this morning while he ushered at his church in Wichita. Operation Rescue cries crocodile tears.

    Suburban Guerrilla is reporting this statement from Randall Terry (via Mike Hendricks at the Kansas City Star:

    “George Tiller was a mass-murderer. We grieve for him that he did not have time to properly prepare his soul to face God. I am more concerned that the Obama Administration will use Tiller’s killing to intimidate pro-lifers into surrendering our most effective rhetoric and actions. Abortion is still murder. And we still must call abortion by its proper name; murder.

    You know what I just realized?

    Operation Rescue had an immediate statement ready, with just the right mix of violence-rejection to cover their asses and not-backing-down-abortion-is-murder brimstone to let us weak-kneed liberals know that they aren’t going to let some negative attention shift their rhetoric or tactics. They knew something like this was going to happen, and they don’t care.  (Quote)

    Within hours of the murder hitting the news, the Operation Rescue website was down. I tried to get an exact wording of their statement, but “couldn’t resolve dns.” I don’t know whether hackers took them down, the traffic dropped them, or if shut it down themselves because of the reaction against them. I’d love to know.  (Quote)

    I suspect they just got overwhelmed, though if I were them, I’d have taken it down just to clean out their comment boards…. which, as it turned out, contain comments from the (alleged) assassin.  (Quote)
