the_mad_poster's Journal: I'm not Pro-Choice, I'm Pro-Abortion

In fact, I think more people should seriously consider the option...

In Zirnike's words:

"I'm sorry, but even as a kid I wasn't dumb enough to shoot explosives at a fuel truck.."

Earth is overpopulated

[Kethinov]

I think Earth is severely overpopulated. Why, my neighbor right now is a woman, a single parent with five kids (of various different races...). She works a crap job and sucks up Welfare.

I mean, what kind of a life could those kids possibly have? They're obviously impoverished from my vantage point. What kind of life are they destined to live when they grow up? Will they even get high school educations? Are they destined to repeat the lifestyle their mother bore them into?

This country needs a policy on chi

How do you prevent someone from having kids based on income? Set up a huge government agency that examines everyones taxes then drives out to their house every 3 or 4 months injecting them birth control? When it comes to government in peoples private lives, less is more.

Also, it would probably violate the 4th and 5th amendments (maybe even the 8th amendment), but it doesn't seem as if very many people in the US value the bill of rights anymore. You could probably get a lot of support for your idea, because

You of course make a good point. It's just that I get disgusted when I look around my neighborhood and see mostly things that depress me.

Runts

[St. Arbirix]

That reminds me of the Runts in City of God. Rodents. Let's go fascist on their ass and whipe 'em out once they prove themselves stupid enough.

I was all for the retard sterilization movement. Am I allowed to use the word "retard" anymore?

I use it all the time. And I'm for sterilizing the whole lot. As to able-bodied people that have been on welfare for more than 6 months: sterilize them. If they have kids, take them away and adopt them out to families which contribute to society. Having kids shouldn't be a right, not when you see drooling scum reproducing like flies.

(fellow Canadians think my views are a bit extreme :))

Biggest problem with that approach

[Ra5pu7in]

Abortion doesn't discriminate between the well-behaved, intelligent future inventors and artists or the ill-behaved, selfish arrogant idiots. More effective would be instant sterilization of anyone who proves themselves an idiot of that nature, so those brain-dead genes aren't scattered far and wide. (Only said partly in jest.)

[Tsunayoshi]

Yeah, but is letting thousands of slobbering idiots be born on the remote chance that one will be another Einstein really worth it? As someone who has to deal will slobbering idiots all day, personally I am thinking it is not...luckily society doesn't decide things based upon my opinion or we would all be in trouble...

bah. won't work. my aunt and uncle are fscking smart people and their 14 year old kid can barely tie his shoes. there's nothing wrong with him and they're decent parents as far as i can see. he's just dumb.

so, i'm sure the reverse is true.

I've never been overly bothered by people who are just plain dumb, it's the willfully stupid people like those in the CNN story that aggravate me....
