I am blown away by folks who despise the Schindler's. It's amazing! The Schindler's have just watched their precious daughter/sister be murdered and they could do nothing about it. Uh . . . let me see . . . would I be mad? YOU BETCHA!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't despise the Schindlers, but I agree with Chad. Their selfishness has already torn us apart and caused the republicans and so-called conservatives to display their hypocrisy. Send the Schindlers money, Saundra, that will help make them happy.
I'm just happy there are people intelligent enough to quantify the usefulness and utility of individual lives. The smart people said that Terri's current life was a worse option than her death.
I hope they can now move on to other circumstances. Certainly those who are locked away in prison for life are living a life worse than death. We are told this very thing by the murderers' very intelligent lawyers during sentencing. "Give my client a punishment worse than death ---- sentence him to prison for life." So, we can starting killing those prisoners now.
Next, we can move on to those starving in poverty. Certainly, most of us would say that we would rather die quickly than suffer the slow death of starvation. Sure those poor children with distended bellies think they want to fight for life, but we know better. Next time all the rock stars have a concert to feed starving Africans, perhaps we could convince them to spend the proceeds on a few daisy cutters. We could drop them on the starving masses and put them out of their misery.
Gee, this is fun. It is no wonder that the intellectuals enjoy making determinations of life-value. It is awfully easy to do from the comfortable confines of our comfortable homes.
It is AMAZING!
