My RSS reader is full of the killing of Dr. George Tiller in Kansas today. A lot of it is worth reading. I don’t have anything to add, so straight into the links.
Coates has Bill O’Reilly spouting off about the doctor in 2006. Obsidian Wings has a series of incredibly touching stories to answer this question:
I cannot imagine the courage it takes to go on doing what you think is right in the face not only of consistent harassment and death threats, but of actual attempts on your life.
This Daily Kos diary is by a woman whose mother Dr. Tiller saved twice.
And, most usefully, Feministe has a list of pro-choice organizations to whom you can donate. As PZ suggests, “[D]o something to infuriate the women-hating anti-choicers and do something positive in honor of Tiller’s work? Donate!”
