LA Times: 'Abortion fatigue' on both sides as Kansas clinic closes

Here, on a freeway frontage road, ground zero of the abortion wars for nearly three decades, there was, it seemed, nothing left to fight over.

Now the national conversation over legalized abortion has shifted away from Women’s Health Care Services, the beige one-story building where Tiller practiced — as one of only a handful of physicians in the country who performed late-term abortions.

Many Wichitans — even those who have dedicated their lives to the issue — say they have wearied of the abortion wars that had been fought continuously on their doorstep until Tiller was gunned down in his church lobby May 31.

    Sad link, #2. Fails entirely to take Christian teaching on abortion and sexual behavior seriously.

    Gee after every Islamic Extremist/terrorist attack, we get article after article stating that ‘we do not believe every Muslim group or individual are terrorists.’ So where are the articles proclaiming “we do not believe every pro-life group or individual are terrorists and murderers”?

    #2 – did you really find it necessary to post a slice of fresh Hell?
