Why Freepers shouldn't have kids

Look at how he polluted his kid's mind!! His 15 year old kid sees a reformed con, giving back to society, and all he can think about is TAX DOLLARS!!!

Nevermind that, absent the reform, the con would probably have re-offended, got put back in jail, and used up more tax money that way than he did by getting taught.

Idiocy like this is appalling.

1. They're contaminating the gene pool.
Like the Baby Ruth in "Caddy Shack", only for real!

2. Some Freepers' kids turn into liberals!
Like me!

I'm not going to give that site a hit, but in general I agree with you.

4. I debated
Edited on Wed Jan-18-06 07:49 PM by InaneAnanity
whether to put the link there, but this idiocy is pretty remarkable, even for Freepers. To jeer at a reformed con, judge him on his past, and to cheer on a kid for thinking this way at such a young age....I was just taken aback by it.

And, never mind that reforming criminals is actually probably cheaper, in the long run, than just punishing them and releasing them, with relative assuredness that they will re-offend and go back to jail in a few years.

3. Let's see
I bet this freaks son was just jealous of the guy because he managed to turn his life around and get a good paying job. With that kind of envious attitude, this Freakers son won't do to well in the world. I'd rather have a one time offender reformed properly, than put back on the street unreformed and eventually doing more.

5. It's very poor quality writing for someone supposedly in...
high school.

I guess Freepers don't give a damn about grammar, logic or style as long as the content is sufficiently hateful. No wonder there are so many books written by right-wing hacks. It must be the easiest kind of writing in the world.

6. Even more contamination:
"What has the government done to protect us? Thousand of Terror plots have been ended before they even got off the ground in the past 5 years. You don't hear about them in the newspaper when they never happen.

how many dollars per zealot? Who cares. money means nothing when you're talking about saving lives. It's sad that people like you are more concerned about how much money is being spent than about saving lives."

Go ahead! Refute the "evidence"!

8. Selective forgiveness.
I sincerely do not understand such extreme hyper-criticism. The punitive quality is really quite frightening,...quite fascist-like.
