The Peace Center mourns the assassination of Dr. George Tiller.
As people who have dedicated our lives to resolving social and
political problems without resort to violence or intimidation,
we condemn anyone who, for any reason or political persuasion,
no matter how fervently held, would take the law into their own
hands to harm, much less kill, someone who disagrees with them.
As much as we are devastated by the loss of Dr. Tiller, we are
fearful for a country where elected politicians calmly order
and delight in the execution of their enemies. Ever since 1991
ad hoc groups, including former Attorney General Phill Kline,
have sought to villify and harrass Dr. Tiller, proclaiming him
their enemy, characterizing him as a murderer. Even those not
responsible for pulling the trigger should reflect tonight on
their incivility and how much their hatred has contributed to
this tragic crime. |
