Of course he's worth saving. He's a Free Republic institution, pinged by practically all the regulars to determine the "hittableness" of certain persons presented on the threads. Even though he would hit almost anything, we see him refuse to hit some things on rare occasions.
What about when he reforms and goes back to being as chaste as a child? Will you allow him no redemption? Laz is a treasure trove, both of hitting and of not hitting.
I have no idea what some of those folks would do without his expert opinion in these matters. He's absolutely vital; there is no question about it. Personally, I can't even imagine Free Republic without Lazamataz.
That dang check better be in the mail, Laz. the rent's due.
