humans are apes & infanticide is a part, albeit an aberrant part, of ape behavior.

But it's interesting what Mitt says about how divorced parents still "have" a mother and father. And even if your hetero parents are dead, their memory still exists and sends powerful penetrating rays of heterosexuality from the afterlife into the developing child's body and brain.

So... what if a kid is adopted by gays? Those kids still have a mother and father out there somewhere. Even if a kid with gay parents has bio parents who are dead, their memory still exists. It's not like your gay parents can erase the memory of parents who where so heterosexual they went and had sex so heterosexual (with the dad's penis in right there in the mom's vagina!) that mom became preggers and all that. No gay moms or gay dads can gay up something like that.

So what is Mitt's problem here? Having gay parents is no worse than having divorced parents or dead parents in Mitt's world, so how bad can that be?

Right? I don't know. I think Mitt is nuts so why do I try to figure out what he means?

And frankly, I love the family I've got, but has anyone read Dan's books containing records of his interactions with his son? The kid lucked out being raised by Dan and Terry. I wish my father had had as much sense as they do.

I highly doubt that the guy was just pissed that the baby wouldn't stop crying. He wanted to get his jollies by torturing another human being. Frustrated (and stupid) parents hit or shake crying babies. Sociopathic pricks do what this guy did.

That's a fucking terrible story.

Second, as I'm generally a cold callous bastard (despite this I was still shocked by the story), I did laugh out loud (and still have the grin on my face as I write this, yes Virginia, I am going to burn in hell...) upon reading the extra crispy comment.

That was in such poor taste and yet so damn funny that I'll probably remember that joke longer than I remember this terrible story.

Damn.

Again I say, HOLY FUCK! It's a fucked up world we live in. Damn!
