Outrageous!

WTF is happening to America? Excuse me, but really!!!

I just stumbled across this comment, made live on air, by a former American Education Secretary named William Bennett:

"I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country and your crime rate would go down."

And Bush merely said that the comments were "not appropriate."

Not fucking appropriate?!!!

Guess by that token, the Holocaust was "not appropriate" too?

Can't help thinking that if the American Government really, really wanted to reduce crime, it would bring in the sort of gun controls we have in the U.K. It works. It doesn't stop gun crime completely but I'd be willing to bet that on a pro rata basis we have far fewer shootings.

It's not brain surgery, ya know; get rid of the guns and the gun crime will go down. But no. They can't bear to part with their homicidal little toys. Then they whinge about their high murder rate.

It really beggars belief that the sort of ethnic cleansing suggested by William Bennett should even enter the head of anyone in a supposedly civilized country - and country that makes such a proud boast of being a Christian country at that.

The grossness of that suggestion is overwhemingly disgusting. }8-(
