Dr. Tiller, was shot in cold blood, in his Church, by an Anti-Choice nutbag. And on top of that, anti-choice people claim to be people of God, yet they have a habit, on rare occasions, of bombing, shooting, and assassinating those who perform abortions and their clinics, which is a bit of a contradiction.
I'm not anti-choice, I'm anti-abortion.....I'm pro-choice in the sense that I believe in a woman's right to choose not to spread her legs, and in the man's right to choose to keep it in his pants.

1. it is being covered in the national news
2. this guy is not well known outside his community.
3. his name was only released an hour and a half ago.
4. no one knows yet why he was killed.

that last fact hasn't stopped the "christian news wire" from scheduling a press conference dedicated to pouillon's "martyrdom" in an hour: http://www.christiannewswire.com/news/7095011511.html

if he was in fact killed over abortion that bears discussing. but we don't know that that's the case yet!

And I agree with you whole heartedly on that point, as well. But the problem is, is that Christians only want to teach abstinence only education. So if abstinence fails, then these kids have no idea what to do with themselves. Abstinence only educators are known for giving misleading statistics about the effectiveness of condoms. If anti-choice people don't want abortions then they need to offer a comprehensive education in avoiding pregnancies.

I fully agree that young ladies and young men should keep it in their pants until they are either married or financially stable. The problem is, is that the media seems to encourage sex as often as possible. It makes me sick how they manage to fit sex into every single TV show they possibly can, rather than make an interesting story line.

I agree, and as far as abstinence-only sex ed or regular sex ed, I'm really not a fan of any of it in schools. I think sex is a private issue that should be up to the parents. Unfortunately, a lot of parents are lazy or absent and don't teach their kids about sex, and that is a shame. It's a tough issue.

Kids are pounded with the "have sex sex sex" in the media, in the movies, well everywhere, all from liberals. Maybe is hollywierd and the media would focus on showing the truth about having sex before you are prepared emotionally and financially kids would get the message that sex too early is not a good thing.

I won't hold my breath for any liberal to be responsible though.

There is no indication from any of the info that I have seen so far that it is related to his prolife stance. It more than likely is relationship-related.
