Man Who Shot Pope in 1981 Is Freed
ISTANBUL, Turkey — Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turkish man who shot and wounded Pope John Paul II in 1981, was released from a Turkish prison on Monday proclaiming thathe was “the Christ eternal” after serving jail terms totaling 29 years.
Under heavy guard and with his car flanked by a huge convoy of reporters and television crews, Mr. Agca, 52, was driven to aTurkish military hospital to be assessed for military service, which is compulsory in Turkey.

Mr. Agca shot the pope on May 13, 1981, in St. Peter’s Square, wounding him in the stomach, left hand and right arm. Two years later, the pope visited Mr. Agca in an Italianprison and offered forgiveness.
The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said Monday he had no comment on the freeing of Mr. Agca.
With his release from prison — he served 10 years inTurkey after 19 years imprisonment in Italy — Mr. Agca is reported to be considering an array of multi-million dollar offers to tell his story. But there have long been questions about his mentalcondition.
Gokayi Gultekin, Mr. Agca’s lawyer, said in a telephone interview before his release that Mr. Agca had already been found unfit for military service because of his “severe anti-social character.”In a statement made public outside the prison at Sincan on the outskirts of Ankara on Monday, Mr. Agca declared: “I proclaim the end of the world. The entire world will be destroyed in thiscentury. Every human being will die in this century.”

These ideas are nightmares for white parents

It’s so scary in a house that allows no swearing
To see him walking around with his headphones blaring
Alone in his own zone, cold and he don’t care...
