Letter to the editor of
TIME magazine from Don Moses:

What a needless
waste of human life

Timothy McVeigh chose to kill 168
innocent people in Oklahoma City.
Many more have died because Timothy
was not given the chance to donate
his vital and priceless organs.
I have been waiting two years for a
heart transplant. More than 60,000
Americans are waiting to receive a
life-saving organ. Over 6,000 people
will die this year waiting for a transplant.
Would I have accepted a heart of
a mass murderer if it had been a match?
Of course I would. I would take a pig's
heart if that would work. Life is precious.
On Monday, June 11th, we threw away
5 to 7 lives for no good reason.
