A Natural Selection “Four Bagger”

Just caught this from Drudge.....

Students are having a field day killing themselves, it seems.  Four stories of four suicides.

You gotta wonder about the weakness and frail make-up of today’s youth who can’t take “adversity.” They can’t seem to handle reality.  Is it a product of too much TV where all problems are fixed in 20 minutes?  Is it a dependence on drugs to make them feel better?  Is it a function of parents who don’t pay attention to warning signs?  Or is it just a genetic frailty that needs purging?

Something is going on to cause this and as cold as it may sound, their own actions to take themselves out of the gene pool is a good thing for humanity.  We really do not need these people to pro-create and pass on their weak genes.  Call me a cruel, heartless bastard but if these kids can’t handle the stress of being a student or the trappings associated with young adulthood, I shudder to think what would happen if they got into the workforce or, God forbid, started having kids.

I’ve had to deal with people like this in the military and while working in Antarctica.  People who were so insecure about everything.  People who cracked under the tiniest amount of stress. People who were so clingy you thought they had become your newest shirt. People forever running to “counselors” because they couldn’t handle reality. They drained the efficiency, productivity and life out of a group.  They were always calling in sick under some pretense or another.  Everyone else had to cover for them as they sought medical “help.” It took its own toll on co-workers.  Some of these were the sort of people that, in a REAL emergency, you’d probably either have to cold-cock or kill outright in order to assure the survival of the others.

Yep, it’s gonna suck for their family and friends but I am still convinced I am right.....and the Spartans were, too, long, long ago.

The first victim? Female.

The second victim? Female.

The third victim? Female.

The fourth victim? Female.

So what’s up, ladies?  Where’s the “I am woman, hear me roar” stuff?

Help me understand.  Believe it or not I DO feel for those who have had a family member or friend commit suicide.  I have two friends who have gone through this.  One lost her brother and the other lost a close friend (who also happened to be a co-worker of mine.)

But I stand by my above stated beliefs.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
