I try not to be an angry person. I mean, things make me angry and generally I don't let it fester. I don't like feeling like I want to seek out a certain individual and make them feel the wrath of the god they claim to be behind the hideousness of their words or actions. However, a few things have happened that have me seeing red.
First there's good ol Bob Marshall Republican delegate out of Virginia. In speaking out against Planned Parenthood he made this lovely statement:
"The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically.Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children. In the Old Testament, the first born of every being, animal and man, was dedicated to the Lord. There's a special punishment Christians would suggest."
Punishment? Raising a child with a disability is a punishment? Well first off assclown, I never had an abortion. Am I being 'punished' with my child's disability because of premarital sex? Or maybe it's the fact she was conceived through IVF, something some crazy right to lifers put on par with abortion. Punishment? How can that not offend me, my child, or anyone raising a child with special needs. Trust me, assface, my child is not a punishment from your god. I won't even begin to tell you what my child is, because your 'apology' for your fucked up statement made me realize that either you have a shitty speech writer, or you just completely suck. My child is neither a punishment for sins I have not committed (and if I had chosen to have an abortion? well you're just full of shit so shut up) nor is she unwanted. I can only assume he's not hoping for re-election. I haven't seen a response from good ol Sarah Palin, the loud mouthed Republican who is also a mother of a special needs kid... but that bitch better step up.
Yeah, I'd like to strap that mofo to a moving train.
And then, we have these lovely people. Kevin and Elizabeth Schatz beat their adopted child to death for mispronouncing a word. (Don't click unless you want to have your heart ripped out). The Schatz are not remotely innocent for what they have done to this child, or the other children they have adopted and their biological children, but they aren't the only people to blame for this child's death. All of these children have suffered this type of torture at their parents hands (and plumbing tube) because the Schatz's follow the teachings of Michael and Debi Pearl. The Pearls seem to think that children are to be trained, with force to bend to your will. Children aren't human beings who deserve love and empathy and respect, no they should be trained from birth with force. I'm pretty sure there is a "special punishment" that god has in mind for the Pearls.
I'd like to suggest tying them to a moving train, or maybe under it.
I could go on, but that's all the rage I have for you today.
I would like to tie them to a moving train, too.
