Grandmother-Killer Demonstrates the Failure of “Justice System”: Rod Taylor

By Rod Taylor

Okay. This happened in the States. Right after Newtown , Connecticut. Really though, it’s just one more unbelievable piece of the evolving mystery puzzle that is modern-day criminal “justice” and it plagues North Americans on both sides of the border. On Christmas Eve this week, near Rochester, New York, 62-year old William Spengler set fire to his house and neighbourhood, and then began firing his rifle at first responders, killing two firefighters and wounding two others. He is also presumed to have murdered his sister, Cheryl Spengler, whose charred remains are yet to be positively identified. Of course, like most of these cowardly, selfish and miserable human beings who show up for a few moments of terror and infamy, when a police officer began returning fire, he shot himself and died by his own hand.

As the story takes shape and this haunted and vindictive killer appears out of the mists of his shady past, we learn a couple of things:

  • He has killed before. In 1980, he killed his own grandmother. What kind of a man would murder his grandmother?
  • He was barred from acquiring or possessing firearms. Like that works with people like him. He had three different guns with him when he began pouring fire onto the selfless and unsuspecting public servants who had raced to save his house.
  • Although he left a note saying that he was about to “do what I like doing best, killing people”, the police say they don’t know what his motive was. Excuse me? How about fulfilling a weird, perverted, demonic impulse to inflict pain, panic and destruction on innocent people? It’s not a motive most of us can identify with, but apparently it’s enough for people like him.
  • He was released on parole after serving 17 years in prison from the “manslaughter” charges on which he was convicted in the hammer-slaying of his grandmother. Any bleeding heart parole board members like to explain to the public why that was a good decision?

This tragic and shocking display of the worst that is in mankind raises many questions and answers some others. Is anyone looking for answers or are the media only looking for different questions?

Consider the following and commit with me to bringing reason and common sense back to our discussion of justice:

  • As long as we withhold justice from the wretched individuals in our society who take away the lives of the innocent, we deny justice for victims past and protection for victims future. Our misguided compassion turns back upon itself and we find ourselves attending the funerals of children, of firefighters, of grandmothers.
  • Firearms restrictions have limited effect on the lawless and disobedient.
  • Our society (US and Canadian) is now liberally sprinkled with people like William Spengler and Adam Lanza and other cowards who have been taught by the entertainment media and the glorified “news” media and even—to some extent—by the secular education system that they are purposeless creatures, that they can’t and shouldn’t control themselves, that they deserve a moment of glory and that they must express themselves “doing what they like best” (even if that is “killing people”).
  • 17 years in prison does not necessarily turn a psychopathic killer into a nice guy.
  • Parole boards are made of compassionate people who want to help. They just seem to get it wrong way too often. They should be protected from the guilt they must feel when they make a stupid blunder like this. They should be protected by ensuring there is NO parole for convicted killers of innocent human beings. The life (or lives) they’ve taken will not come back. Why should they get to do something “that they like doing” with the rest of their lives?

I don’t know how many victims have to die at the diabolical hands of those who have murdered and been convicted once already before we wake up and say “Enough!” But until we get that simple math straight, no amount of gun laws will protect innocent firefighters and schoolchildren. A demonic tide of wilful death-dealing and destruction has been unleashed on our society. It rises from the blood-stained halls of the abortion clinics that pollute our land. A people that allow the destruction of innocent babies by the hundreds, the thousands, the millions, cannot righteously and courageously stand and face the demonic hordes of gun-toting murderers without seeing in the mirror the face of complacency, idolatry and selfish convenience. The robed masters who judge the man with the gun cannot condemn him justly while turning a blind eye to the abortionist—with his bloody scalpel and aspirator—filling his bank account with the blood of precious unborn infants. God help us reclaim our society. It cannot be done with good intentions. It cannot be done by man’s inventions. It can only come by returning to God, asking His forgiveness and asking His direction. He knows “what is in the heart of man”. He alone can cleanse us from our bloodguiltiness and pride.
