Humanity is doomed.

She claims no one else has the guts to tell them yet doesn't sign the letter, typical.

Maybe it wasn't written by a neighbor.... Could have be a stunt to get national attention and donations by the family with the autistic kid.

Thats what is said in my first post. I am so jaded now, I cant believe anyone it seems. We see these stories on the news almost daily. Some skank says her kid has cancer and collects donations. The last one even convinced the kid he was dying. What kind of POS does that?

Hence my thread title. This whole thing begs the question, "who are we as a people"? We're either a people who tell the world our kid has cancer for attention or a society that aborts its "troubles" away and is one step away from calling for the dispatching of those who bother, annoy, or are a burden on the collective.

FIFY. It's moral entitlement. We're coming to the logical end of the choices we've made for quite some time.
