I don't recall addressing your pot shots the first time you foamed at the mouth in my direction, papertyger, but it appears you you've latched on anyway, so here goes....
Ironically, it's your own prejudice and speculation based on nothing that is showing through. You want what you want, and how dare anyone offer a critical word to the contrary. But I used to volunteer in an orphanage when I lived in Central America. I've seen your type, and heard from the other workers many times over about your type, coming down from America looking for a cute new plaything. It's such a "hassle" to adopt in the U.S., and all the "good ones" are already taken, after all. "Who wants to sit on a waiting list for a crack baby? Har har!" Wink, nudge! I've heard it all. In some cases your birds of a feather thought if they flashed some cash around they could just buy a baby and walk straight out the door. In other cases your buddies just went shopping elsewhere. "Now remember, Henry, he can't be too old... and we want him to look just so." Every now and then the village your kind was skulking around in would catch wind of things and turn out en masse to give a going away party of sorts, with stones in hand.
Look up "baby stealing in Guatemala." A couple of years ago even the usually corrupt Guatemalan government had to bow to public outrage and announce that it would crack down and severely curtail the export-to-America adoption industry. GOOD!
You resent the adoption process being so difficult, do you? My God, one shudders to imagine what would happen if it were made easier.
And what about our already out of control immigration problem, or does that not matter either when you're the one on a shopping trip?
No, you aren't trying to "feed a hungry person," as you put it. There are obviously far more effective ways of doing that, like Child Fund for one, so don't try to use that as a shield. Your interest here is yourself. Your problem isn't so much that you can't express yourself without cursing, or even telling people what opinions they're entitled to hold, it's your own sense of supreme self-entitlement. Unfortunately, you are far from unique.

Interesting.

You’ve responded to me twice now, but neither time have you had the fortitude to address the posts to me so I would be sure to see them.

Still, given the quality of your thinking coupled
to your writing, I can’t say as I blame you for trying to keep a low profile even as you engage in a pathetic attempt to “save face.”

I mean really ... “it’s your own prejudice and speculation
based on nothing that is showing through.” Is that from the PeeWee Herman “I know you are, but what am I” school of rhetorical dance?

I have a long and active history on FReeRepublic, and I will admit to using language on you no other loathsome little cur has ever elicited from me. But then, one seldom runs across the kind of nasty bitterness of spirit you have demonstrated.

In the Bible, Christ tells us “blasphemy of the Holy Spirit” is the only unforgivable sin when his miraculous good works are attributed to Satan. And while you haven’t committed that grievous offense here, the offense you have committed here is surely of the same genus. Out of your wicked heart and imagination you spill bile and filth on those whose rectitude should shame you to silence.

Tell me, in your sainted “volunteering,” how many prospective parents have you
looked in the eye with five, seven, or ten failed domestic adoptions to their credit? And I’m not talking about rejections. I mean negotiated with the mother, footed her expenses, have the baby in arms one hour after the birth, only to have her change her mind, leaving them with no recourse or compensation to try again.

I personally know literally hundreds of parents who have adopted internationally, and many of those adopted have been “special needs” babies, and NEVER have I met even one of these make-believe, one dimensional characters looking for “designer babies” you claim to be so familiar with.

I have personally seen literally dozens of children suffering from facial deformities so bad they couldn’t even draw suction on their baby bottle adopted by Americans. And vermin like you have the audacity to find fault with them over immigration?

And finally you try to insinuate your own chauvinistic masturbations as “opinion?”

My God. It’s like you’re the idiot child of Al Sharpton and Occupy Wall Street. How does the Universe suffer your contemptible existence without vomiting you out of reality?
