Everyone's beating around the bush, or curtly telling you to mind your own business, because they are uncomfortable with the answer to your question. Very true.

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.
