Kansans for Life wants to make George Tiller's old clinic an abortion Auschwitz

Kansans For Life wondered aloud yesterday if one of its followers should buy murdered abortion provider George Tiller's shuttered clinic and turn it into a memorial for aborted fetuses.

"I've been to the Auschwitz and some of the other death camps in

Poland. They are quite moving and memorable and sad," KFL's David

Gittrich wrote in an e-mail to KFL supporters.

Wait. You're comparing a legal medical procedure to the Holocaust? Really?



Tiller's longtime attorney, Lee Thompson, told the Associated

Press that selling the building has been in the works "for some

time." Operation Rescue leader Troy Newman told the AP that he inquired

about the building, which he was told is on the market for $900,000. Once he identified himself, though, he says he was told the building wouldn't be sold

to him.

Gittrich didn't flat-out say that's what should be done with the

shuttered clinic. He was just floating the idea.

I tend

to think that we should spend our energy and resources on the

continuing battle and keep our eyes on the goal of making abortion

unacceptable, unthinkable, and unlawful.


Tiller was serving as an usher at his church service

when Scott

Roeder

shot and killed him in May 2009. A Wichita jury convicted

Roeder of first-degree murder in January as well as two

counts of aggravated assault against two witnesses. He

received a "Hard 50" sentence, meaning he'll serve 50

years before he's eligible for parole.
