                            THE RIGHT TO LIFE CRIME-WAVE
                   COPY OF A LETTER THE WASH. POST NEVER PUBLISHED



              One thing which the "right-to-life" movement seems to be
          advocating, if only by implication, is a crime wave of truly
          awesome proportions.  Given the fact that unwanted children
          normally grow up to be criminals in America, one has to
          consider the eighteen million muggers, rapists, axe murderers,
          stone killers, drug pushers, pimps, prostitutes, street-gang
          members, bag men, torch men, confidence men, hit men, numbers
          runners, boot-leggers, moon-shiners, pick-pockets, purse-
          snatchers, peeping-toms, cat burglers, dog soldiers, child
          molesters, adult molesters, pilferers, and sundry
          practitioners, perpetrators, and purveyors of perversions,
          etc., the pre-emptive demise of all of whom was being so
          loudly decried at the recent march on Washington, and ask
          oneself, "where would they all be living today, if not for the
          neighborhood abortion clinic?".  Worse yet, assuming that a
          Reagan-packed supreme court will ultimately reverse the Wade-
          vs-Roe decision, where will the next such 18 million strong
          army of crime be living 12 years hence?  It's enough to
          frighten Al Capone.  I personally hope they all end up in one
          of four places: New York (Wm. Buckley's neighborhood),
          Roanoke Va. (Falwell's neighborhood), California (Reagan's
          neighborhood), or  (and this would be justice) at the Vatican.  I
          hope to hell they don't end up in Rockville.
