The White House issued a statement Sunday evening from President Obama on the murder of George Tiller. Here's what the president said:

"I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence."
