re: #777 kansas

Two things. One, operation Rescue is extremist no matter how much they spin. Bunch of nutzoids on the level of Fred Phelps.

Two, George Tiller was under investigation by the Board of Healing Arts for violations because he was alleged to have falsified records that were required to justify the procedures he was performing. Some of the procedures required referral and it is alleged he had a sham referral agreement with another doctor. Regardless of the right to chose, this procedure is supposed to be very strictly controlled. I would think it should be done in a hospital setting not in the private office of a provider who would be influenced by the fee.

So, technically late term abortions are legal in Kansas. George Tiller may have been violating the statutes, however. [Link: www.ksbha.org…]

Politically motivated charges. Just like the ones on which he was acquitted.
