I’m not one to judge the whole based on a portion.
Not one to judge an entire group based on an individual.
But let’s face it, as I get older(and more bitter), I begin to notice just how asinine many of our fellow humans can be. Is it wrong to suggest sterilization for the stupid?
Today, I have read about, heard about and otherwise witnessed human idiocy in action. And I must say, I witness stupidity on a regular basis, but today was saturated with good old fashioned dumb ass activity.
I was walking down the street and noticed a woman stumble in front of me. I knew the stumble, I’ve done that stumble: it’s the stumble where you are wearing shoes you can’t really walk in for the sake of fashion. Naturally, I gazed down at her feet. The woman’s ankle was wrapped for what I can only assume is a sprain or a healing broken ankle and she was wearing 4-inch, open-toed, open backed wedges. I understand fashion, I do. Yes, they were nice shoes but quite frankly, I’d rather wear runners and avoid further injury such as, oh, a broken leg, or maybe a smashed skull.
Shortly after wedge-woman, I encountered a woman with an arm in a sling(maybe these injuries are signs of previous idiocy, who knows?). She was carrying a rather large backpack – the kind you use to go camping – which looked heavy as it was hanging low and she was supporting it on only one shoulder. That would seem like a smart idea, right? Well, it would if she weren’t wearing it on the same side as the sling. Genius.
For the final case of complete lack of intelligence, I will refer to a news paper article:
A few weeks ago, a young man was stabbed, beheaded, cannibalized and cut to pieces on a Greyhound bus. My heart goes out to the family of that young man and to the people on that bus who had to experience that horrid display.
I won’t speak of the idiocy of the man responsible, because I’m sure it’s fairly clear that he is not only void of intelligence but also of sanity.
I am referring to a church group from Kansas. I’m not attacking religion, or any city in America here; only this specific church group. I am usually fairly level headed when reading news stories, but this article angered me so much, I was shaking and red in the face.
The church group plans to protest at the young victim’s funeral stating that the reason he died was that “God” was punishing Canada for it’s laws and tolerance regarding abortion, homosexuality and adultery. Apparently, this group has also been known to protest outside soldiers’ funerals. Their actions not only pass far beyond simple human idiocy, but obliterates human decency. They demand to be acknowledged in their beliefs and respected, yet they have no respect for others.
Luckily, if the lunatics are raging at the border, the border guard has orders to refuse them access to Canada. However, it will be impossible to prevent all of them access so, forces have been made readily available to stop them should they attempt to display their ignorance. Defense, not offense; they will not seek the members of the less-than-humane group out, but should any appear, they will be ready to stop them.
Here’s hoping the police use tasers on them. Preferably in the genital area.
I don’t claim to be supremely intelligent, nor do I say that I have never done anything stupid, but I still don’t come from the shallow end of the gene pool where all the dirt and debris collects and festers.
(Note, that despite the fact that chlorination implies cleansing, I, by no means, think to take it to a Jihad level. I won’t go about trying to eliminate all the stupid people in the world. Really, if I did, who would run our countries and be our teeny-boppers’ drug-riddled-crotch-flashing-pop-singing-reality-TV-role-models?)
