I don’t suppose that she would extend that idea far enough to say that people on welfare shouldn’t have kids either.

I believe that this is called the “slippery slope”.

The idiot defeats her own arguments by saying she has made lifestyle choices to overcome bad genetics. I am one of 3 members in a very large family that has arthritis. My parents, their parents and as far back as memory goes have all lived to around 90 with no major health issues. The chance that my kids will get great genetics is high but by this dunce my kids wouldn’t get to live

>>Men and women who have bad genes with genetic diseases like ... hypertension

Above middle age, the majority of the adult public "has" hypertension. The percentages are even higher now since they lowered the numbers to qualify.

Would they kill off 50% of the populace to cull us to "the best stock of Americans"?

Perusing recent deaths I saw this man described as “anti-immigration activist”. I’d never heard of him and the wikipedia profile has some particularly strange associations:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tanton

...He founded Petoskey chapters of the Sierra Club and Planned Parenthood and, for a time, became the national president of Zero Population Growth. Unable to secure support from colleges, in 1979, he founded the non-profit Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) with early support from Warren Buffett and Eugene McCarthy.[8] By 1983, he co-founded U.S. English....

...According to CNN, Tanton “has openly embraced eugenics, the science of improving the genetic quality of the human population by encouraging selective breeding and at times, advocating for the sterilization of genetically undesirable groups.”[17] Tanton wrote a paper in 1975 arguing for “passive eugenics” whereby child-bearing would be restricted to those between the ages of 20 and 35.[18] He also founded the pro-eugenics organization, the Society for Genetic Education (SAGE)...

...After the media published the memo, several prominent members of U.S. English cut their ties with the organization, including advisory board member Walter Cronkite and its executive director Linda Chavez, a prominent conservative Republican columnist.[22] Tanton himself eventually resigned, although he complained that he had been smeared as a racist...


Associated with Sierra Club, Zero Population Growth, Walter Cronkite, Warren Buffett, Eugene McCarthy, and sterilization programs. And the Left insists that “the Right” is extremist??? Clearly this man was on the Left politically on many key points.

But she would flip out if anyone said that people being on welfare for several generations was evidence of “bad genes”.

She did...and further, she meant primarily meant non-white genes were inferior.

It’s called eugenics.
It was all the rage in this country 120 years ago.

Look it up, you’ll be shocked.

Pro-Choicer: People with “bad genes” shouldn’t have kids

I got a couple pairs with a lot of wear on the knees and around the bottoms of the legs, I wonder if that disqualifies me.

BTW, did you guys know that diarrhea is hereditary? Yup, it runs in your jeans!
