And that was only one example I listed. Do you really want women to be forced to carry fetuses with undeveloped brains to fullterm if they will die within hours? Do you want to make it mandatory for a women to carry to term even if that means she can't undergo chemotherapy? Some women choose the life of their unborn child over their own (http://www.vatican.va/news_services/liturgy/saint... which is a beautiful sacrifice and her own decision, but do you from your moral high ground feel comfortable making that decision for every woman?

Nine year-olds menustrating is rare, but is occurring more and more frequently due to Western levels of nutrition and obesity, both of which bring on menarche quicker. Here's a list of the world's youngest mothers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_youngest_bir... Most of these are as a result of rape, and the real levels of child pregnancy are probably higher due to family confidentiality.

Oh, right. Never.
Groups like Bill O'Reilly and Operation Rescue really do incite violence because of their rhetoric "babykillers, murderers, scum, going to hell," etc, and also be posting names and addresses online. It's a bit like Iran calling the US 'The Great Satan,' training religious fanatics, and then turning around and saying they aren't responsible for the ensuing terrorism.

And Tiller provided late-term abortions, which were mainly for women whose babies had died inside them, or who whose babies would live a life of suffering if they were born, or who needed cancer treatment that would kill the fetus. Dr Tiller was a very compassionate man to continue doing what he was doing in the face of daily threats to his life.

Tiller provided these services to women who needed them more than anyone else, who were not being helped by anyone else out of fear of ASSASSINATION. Even if you are personally pro-life I'm sure one of the above situations strikes you as being a justifiable reason for abortion - after all, why lose two lives when one can be saved, if the woman might carry another child?
Pro-lifers who take this line about late-term abortion simply don't fully understand all the shades of grey out there and the awful decisions sometimes made necessary by medical reality. And people who celebrate Tiller's death might someday find out from a family member or acquaintance just why what he was doing was so selfless.
