That's not "sick and twisted", unless you haven't thought it through.
We are talking about humans.Quote:

As bae says, it is pretty much impossible to go through life without killing, whether it's other forms of life, human life, etc. Heck, having fifty million citizens in this country without access to health insurance probably involves a lot of human life being killed, people dying unnecessarily, etc.
Look at all the little children already born who are abused, and even killed by their parents. Look at the kids that social services, stretched to the max already, let slip through the cracks and who die in miserable surroundings. Try not to waste all your angst on a collection of cells unable to live outside the womb....spend some of that on all the little children dying everywhere, all around you in this world. The ones who are already born.
Wasted effort......going to bed.......
