Get Out Your Shotguns - It's Open Season on Babies!!

"Be vewy, vewy quiet..   it's baby season!"

It's fiddler crab season.

It's elk season.

It's baseball season.

Nope.

Apparently, it's baby season. 

The logical outcome of a society where everyone ELSE is to blame for our actions has, it seems, made it open season to kill children with impunity.

Witness today:

Casey Anthony - acquitted on charges of murder and manslaughter of her two-year-old child after lied about the alleged nanny of the child and did not report her child missing for one month until basically pressed into it by her family.

Japanese exchange student Narumi Bito was acquitted today after being found with a dead baby behind a chair in her apartment, discovered only after her homestay host noticed the smell of the small decomposing corpse in the home.

Dr. Guy Turcotte was found not criminally responsible for the admitting killings of his two children, aged 5 and 3, after having a "psychotic break" after learning his wife was seeing another man.

Isn't that special.

You see.. Casey Anthony was just misunderstood.  Listen to her lawyer wax eloquently about how abused she was in the media - ignoring the reality that an acquittal is hardly an indication of innocence in the full sense of the word - just ask O.J. Simpson about the different burden in a criminal trial as compared to a civil trial.

Narumi Bito - was a 21 year old student attending the University of Victoria.  Read that again - a "university student" who apparently didn't know she was pregnant, didn't know she was giving birth, and didn't know how to seek help when her baby was born.  When asked why she let her child fall into the toilet, she gave evidence that she thought she was taking a crap. Then, after literally dropping it in a toilet - then passing out - she put the dead child in a plastic bag and secreted it behind a chair in her room.. then went about her life, chatting with friends, buying a new computer, and going to school. 

Dr. Turcott - well, he's maybe the most special of all, because, you see - he admitted to stabbing his two children to death.  But - you see - it wasn't his fault.  His wife had an affair.  So - obviously, the appropriate response was to brutally stab his two infants until they were dead.

Should we be shocked?  Not really.

You see, the "Brave New World" we've created for ourselves dictates that none of us should be held responsible for the consequences of our actions.  Heroin addicts not only shouldn't be arrested - but they should be supplied with heroin - or at least given clean needles and a safe place to commit their crimes.

Rioters who have disagreements with democracy and capitalism shouldn't be arrested - or even hampered in their efforts to attack foreign dignitaries attending economic conferences.  While police cars burn and business are looted, we are to examine why our capitalist system let them down.

And, as blogged about yesterday, when terrorists firebomb schools or Muslim parents murder their children for not abiding by their archaic social constructs - we should really blame society for not doing more to help them before they turn to violence - just ask Ehab Lotayef.

Of course - if you happen to use violence - not to kill your family, but to protect your home or your business - well, that will not be tolerated.

Welcome, indeed, to the progressive utopia, a bizzaro-world where killing your children is condoned and protecting yourself is not.
