Most everything you post in pointless and irrelevant. Doesn't seem to stop you.
Nor does it stop you from coming back and posting in threads about topics you admittedly refuse to even try to follow, but instead you just add your 2 cents anyways. Talk about being irrelevant ! LOL !

Wish I May:
Excuse me?
1) Did you watch the video? Tell me you can watch the video and the creepiness of the social workers not come off.
2) The took the children away. I mean, hello? If they're already acting in a fascist manner, then their actual creepiness is really secondary.
3) No, you're not. You missed the point because you just did it again. Stop, think, and use your imagination.
You just handed the *power* of whether or not they can have kids to a small group of fairly obvious white supremacists. I think that's damn near close to the worst idea I've ever heard.
So let's rewind.
A. As soon as you say that the social workers* this "test" they can perform to tell actual parents whether they can keep their actual kids (the most absurd power in human history just granted.)
B. You *trust* them to give this test and make the decision. Nothing untoward could ever come out of that, because nothing like that ever happened before.
Do you remember literacy tests for voting? Remember how that turned out? Sounds like a good idea, right? I mean, we don't want morons choosing our leaders, right? But I assume you do know how it turned out.
C. So, pretty much forgone conclusion for this test, week one it goes like this.
Q: So, what's the first thing you're going to do when you take this child home?
A: no hablo ingles
Q: I'm sorry, I didn't understand your response. Maria, You gotta tell me the first thing you're going to do with little Carlos when you get him home...
Yeah I know what you're thinking you're thinking of course the test will be in english and spanish, but you didn't say so, and you just handed all the power over to the state of florida, and now that they have the power, they don't ever have to listen to you again. You can call them up and tell them that they have to give it in spanish, but you know what? they hate that idea. And they don't hate it half as much as the state of arizona whom you also just handed that power to.
It's a nightmare. There's nothing about this that is ever going to go anywhere near being anything good. You just need to apply a little imagination to see exactly how bad it can get.
So, Next thing that happens... because it ain't bad yet.
D. They change the test. What? Why? They can't do that. Sorry, they already did. You gave them the power, and now they've gone and changed the test on you.
Q: Name the 50 states in alphabetical order backwards please.
A: Oh no you didn't
Oh, but we're not done changing the test.
Q: Do you believe in God?
A: What the hell kind of question is that.
Q: Excuse me miss, but you're talking to a representative of the state of mississippi, and you should not disrespect me because I have the power to take your children away and throw you in jail.
One of the great things about America is that you can opt out. You don't have to be a part of the madness. Sure. There are people who are already in the above situations, all of them, but that's because they went to the state for help. Once you realize that the state is your enemy, you know that these people are on the same train as the one the Jews took to a new life in Israel as paid for by the German govt. It's the train of hope. I don't know if prayer works, but at that point I might start trying. I sure know hope doesn't.

Oh, just out of snarky curiousity, have you ever worried that squirrels are having babies without taking a test?

Hey, I done mentioned the dads twice

Creepy nanny state you got going there. While it may seem like a good idea at the outset, think about the power you're handing, and who you're handing it to. Figure the same whiteys you just saw, being all sorta white supremacist like, are about to get the power of who does and doesn't have children. Result? I'm seeing that Rick Perry N*ggerhead institute adopting a hundred thousand black kids, which good "keep america white" christians signing off to send 'em all to the cotton picking academy 24/7. That's right, you can pick while you learn, and by the time you graduate with an BFOQ in agrarian arts, you owe Jim Crowe's Company Store a life's savings, but you ain't done the saving yet. Don't worry sonny, you'll have 40 good years of hauling ass to pay it off in.
Okay, so I'm on the pessimistic side of govt. intervention, but I got a pretty solid track record over here of that being the case. Also, look at whitey in that video. Not really bending over backwards to be fare and caring.
That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.
I think Newt Gingrich just applied for the job as dean of Perry's "N****rhead Institute". Or maybe he just wants to be the janitor.

This women having fifteen children and or having more is about her reproductive freedom, not entitlement.
Again, you miss the point. She can have 500 children, but the issue of entitlement centers on her not being able to pay for ONE of them, and expecting society to carry her load.
This is quite a different stance from the one you took during the Gulf oil spill. At that time, you DEMANDED that the government take over and fix it, because it was simply too big to expect the oil company to carry the load.
So what changed? Or do you firmly believe that governments are required to "carry the load" for corporations, but never for people?

How many times has Rappy refused to read the articles linked in threads, yet still insists on throwing in his 2 cents?
Thanks for letting us know how irrelevant you find yourself, Rap.

Is this somehow worse than Rap's suggestion that such people should be "fixed" so as not to be able to have children in the first place?

Their squirrel babies take a test. It's pass/fail. Failure is death. Are you suggesting we let human babies loose in the wild to fend for themselves?
Hey, you brought up snarky curiosity; I just rolled with your groove.

Technically, by definition, it's the same.
It's like when the Federal Government was taking children away from Native Americans and put them in "good Christian schools".
Essentially both are genocide. Ultimately both have the same consequences, it's just one is more direct, and one is more indirect.

As for Rap's eugenics plug, I saw it but didn't respond because Anthony had pre-empted me clearly trying to head off a eugenics debate.
This is a different issue, the creation of absurd govt. power through getting them to "help." It's very white man's burdeny, or perhaps worse. So, no, it's not as nazi as forcing her into surgery, but it's headed off in the direction. The difference is that the flat out eugenics, most people will see it as evil, but transferring a similar amount of power to social services, they won't notice.
Hence my pointing it out. Re: Your squirrel point: Social services should take away the children to protect them from themselves and their relatives? that's very whiteman's burdeny.
Oh, and Byte, yeah, what she said.
