Good Moral Economics
The termination of an abortionist (by a random citizen) serves not only the defensive duty of all (and anyone) to protect innocent people from harm (viz., those babies he was plotting to kill), but it also serves the justice principle of bringing due punishment upon a transgressor; a murderer is punished justly for his capital crimes. Of course, the latter effect is normally to be left to the civil authorities whose duty it is to prosecute criminals and administer justice. In this case – civil authorities failing – the citizens have to take up the mantle and administer justice.
