Soly, most people here are going to take that as insanely cruel sarcasm. I would suggest you ask that question of people you know better.
Economic Left/Right: 9.65
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.37

Proud Constitutionalist

When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.

Tyrants from Hitler to Mao to Stalin have sought to disarm their own citizens, for the simple reason that unarmed people are easier to control.

Yes, I know, hence blinding themselves to the deeply philosophical question concerning the nature and relative value of human life as we perceive it through a question that seemingly hides its true essence behind the simple guise of sarcasm. However, should I hold such bias in my heart that I would deny fellow members of my delightful species to remain ignorant of yet another seed that a creation of ours has spurned forth into this world of ours?

Would it, with all honesty and good intentions kept close at hand, be fair for me to let this opportunity to question such fascinating ideals like the "sanctity of life" or "human rights" simply to slip away, unhindered by the heavy burden of thought?

Truly, would it not be a shame to lay on the line of fire that which we assume to be true merely because of indoctrination and the self-serving nature of those thoughts?

I have full faith that it is so, therefore I decided to present my question.

My sincerest apologies if anyone is offended, but not for the most common reasons.
