O'Reilly not to blame for Tiller's murder

Wednesday July 1, 2009
 

I feel I must respond to the Fedja Buric rant (June 23 letter) blaming Bill O'Reilly and Fox News for the murder of late term abortionist George Tiller. She made a gross misstatement when she stated what Tiller was doing was legal in all 50 states. That couldn't be further from the truth – late term abortions are not legal in most states, and only a handful of greedy doctors will perform them.

Most fetuses aborted in a late-term abortion could be delivered as living healthy babies. Late-term abortions are much the same as murder – depriving an innocent baby of the right to live. Tiller performed many of these abortions for the most trivial of reasons, not to save a woman's life, but for money. He chose to use his medical license not to prevent death, but to cause it, and make himself wealthy.
