Go Waagner Go!

Dennis Roddy writes about Clayton Waagner’s stills of elusion in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (28 May). The man from Kennerdell, Pennsylvania is on the Marshal Service 15 Most Wanted List and has been profiled on “America’s Most Wanted” FOUR times. (A fifth segment is planned detailing his escape.)
Why was he in jail? He had already done time for stealing a coin collection in Michigan. This time, before escaping, he was in for “a raft of federal charges after a multi-state crime rampage,” says Roddy.
Well, let us assume the best: he was robbing pornographers, Democrats, and communist federal judges. We ought not to think that every citizen in our vast numbers of prison camps is in jail for real crimes. Still, why is Mr. Waagner so zealously hunted? “Most Wanted”?
I shall enlighten you with the words of Roddy: “When he was arrested in Illinois in September 1999, he told federal agents he was on his way to Seattle, where he hoped to shoot an abortion doctor.”
Now you understand! Shooting abortionists or destroying their sacrosanct altars of human sacrifice in our time is like attacking an Aztec priest in antiquity.
You can burn down a village of religious devotees in Waco if you are the Attorney General and you can get away with selling out your country to an enemy if you are the President. But if you are a simple thief who makes a verbal threat against a holy abortionist, you will be seriously hunted.
Let us assume a more likely evaluation. Waagner, father of eight children, performed indiscriminate robberies to feed his children; he didn’t care whether victims were good guys or bad guys. He repents and wants to do the right thing. What ought a righteous man do for the society to which he owes debts? Surely jail time does not afford society anything but to deprive the people of money spent on his confinement. Being As a fellow who goes for the gusto, he resolves to do something which he can afford. Eliminating an abortionist does not cost much and the lives saved results in thousands of children (when one counts children and grandchildren) who will pay social security taxes for the benefit of many citizens.
We ought not to deprive this fugitive from a misguided, baby-slaughtering society a place to be warm and fed. Open your house to Clayton Waagner.
