Sociopaths like Peter Singer have no place among civilized people, and need to be expelled from the borders of this nation - or at least placed in an insane asylum.

Once this guy snaps and starts offing people napping on the subway (”They weren’t self-aware, so they weren’t actually people at the moment.”) and pleads insanity because he didn’t know right from wrong, then we’ll finally address the Peter Singer problem.

My apologies - I get Peter Singer confused with David Boonin, a "philosopher" and "intellectual" who's argued himself into stupidity, and whose arguments constitute a threat to everyone who doesn't measure up to his standards of "worthy human life".

If you really want to see sociopathic sophistry with its sales-pitch tactics on full display, check out Boonin in this debate.
