Who is James Redford? We don't know his agenda, if any, since we don't know who he is.
I was just being facetious; he is the guy who wrote the article on the link. I think?

Nor was there a jump after the ice storm of 98.
People in favour of voluntary human extinction, I have a question: seriously, why are you still here?
I have the same problem with this that I have with the death penalty - i.e. miscarriages of justice do happen and I don't really buy the 'it's worth killing a few innocent people if we eradicate the scum' argument because quite simply I wouldn't want to be one of those innocent people.Well I advocate killing off only peadophiles, rapists and bullies/psychos/thugs/sadists - I think that this would kill off 10% of the human population and we would all be better off without them anyway.

Take care how glibly you hand out death lest someone hand it to you, imo.

There is also some sort of fundamental contradiction involved in killing 'bullies/psychos/thugs/sadists' .... presumably because they are violent and have no respect for other people it is OK for us to take their lives ... but what does this then make us?

The second thing is - you seriously think that there is nothing we can do about paedophiles or rapists and that we just have to live with them and try to rehabilitate them?
They tried that.
It has led to so many paedophiles and rapists running about the UK raping children and women it is unbelievable, and there are so many cases not reported.
Families raping their children for goodness sakes - and you say do nothing?
I say kill all of them - remove them. They are scum as you put it, and I do advocate killing the lot of them. The world would be better off without them.
Why should children get raped from when they are babies to when they are adults just because human rights bleeding heart liberals say that we should leave the paedophiles and rapists alone and blame the victims?
I hate the state of the country at the moment, criminals often get away with rape and paedophilia just because nobody reports them, and because the country is too lenient on them.
Erm just how the fuck exactly do you expect this to work? Does the virus/bacteria read their mind?First - lets get rid of part of the moral conundrum here, if you tailor a disease that kills only rapists, paedophiles and psychopathic evil thugs then you won't kill any innocent people.
Yes, because that's exactly what I'm saying, do absolutely nothing with/to the perpetrators and blame the victimsWhy should children get raped from when they are babies to when they are adults just because human rights bleeding heart liberals say that we should leave the paedophiles and rapists alone and blame the victims?
No more than at any other time, I'd argue, and probably more are reported than ever before, although I agree the majority probably aren't. Men get raped too, btw.It has led to so many paedophiles and rapists running about the UK raping children and women it is unbelievable, and there are so many cases not reported.
That's not Science Fiction, that's pure fantasy. The horrible truth about, "rapists, paedophiles and psychopathic evil thugs" is that most of them are pretty much like everybody else. There's nothing substantially different that a 'tailored disease' could attach itself to. That's why so many SS concentration camp guards could go back to their bank jobs after WWII.coldelephant said:...

You're right - tabliods do me no good, which is why I don't read them.
As for these scum being just like everybody else - no they are not, they are rapists, paeodophiles and evil thugs.
Normal people are not like this.
I suppose it comes back to nature or nurture - but if that RNA stuff I read about is true, then it backs up my point that a disease can be tailored.

That is easy - RNA.
Scientists have found or will find out shortly that RNA controls behaviour.
There was an article about this on another thread;

But you want to exterminate them. Where's that on the sliding scale of inhuman behaviour? Do you think such violent thoughts might leave a subtly different trace in your RNA, from the violent thoughts of some more criminal type?coldelephant said:_Lizard23_ said:I assume if, heaven forfend, anyone ever cry 'rape' on you, you will shoot yourself in the head immediately?
No - I am not a rapist or a paedophile, and I do not engage in the vile activities that they do.
To put it politely: bollocks.
Nor was Stefan Kisko, didn't stop him doing a good decade in prison for it. I suppose we should just have killed him?No - I am not a rapist or a paedophile, and I do not engage in the vile activities that they do.
