On the Virtues of Killing Children
Posted by Frank J. at 08:59 AM | View blog reactions | Comments (26)

You know how the trolls (and guys with green helmets) try to counter every argument with pictures of dead children? Well, Grim at Blackfive has a post which should make those people's heads explode: He's arguing for killing children! Seriously!

Anyway, it's sort of Nuke the Moon™ argument: violence produces peace while pacifism produces violence. Except Grim is arguing that, by worrying about killing children, more children die.

Well, one thing is for certain: War is not a pretty thing.

UPDATE: Here's an example of lefties hyperventilating over this one.

Shorter tbogg: Instead of dealing with the argument, I reduce everything into what I believe to be a witty strawman as fodder for the muckadoos who read me.

Just look above, dingus, I paraphrased Grim's argument pretty accurately; it's really not that hard.
