Where's all the people who stood up for Octo-hag? Will they stand up for this person as well?
We are paying for these kids and despite that, these kids will still have a bleak future. Most of them, statistically, will end up having the same adulthood as their crap parents. If we want to be thinking of the chiiiiiiiildren in these cases, these children need to be given a fair shot at life.
Your previous post implied an association based on race, not your "associates," "family," or "circle." If the meaning that I used of association meant any of those three, you'd have asked the question "do I know this fellow?" However, the meaning was clear.
I'm not a language major, but based on your fuzzy postings, I think that you may need an explanation.
You have the right to be a bigot. However, it's probably a good idea to understand that your desire to use race is an effort to make yourself feel better, and it makes you feel better because you're not a member of the race that you're denigrating,and the race to which you belong becomes relatively superior with the denigration of the "inferior." You're tearing down others so that you don't feel as bad as you know that you should about yourself and your failings. This type of bigotry is just an effort to avoid looking in a mirror.
Perhaps you're overweight and wish to find something less painful to think about. Perhaps your wife dislikes you, your parents are disappointed, you haven't succeeded as you thought you would, etc. Whatever your insecurities, they're what you're running from by investing in racism.
The term you are looking for is "Downward Social Comparison" - coined by Leon Festinger.
Not the fault of the kids. However, we really do need to bring eugenics and chemical castration back.
Let's bring Mengele back, too - I hear he was an avid proponent of Eugenics.
