Is it just me, or is the world around us absolutely packed to the fucking gills with idiots?
It seems that no matter what educational programs the guys in Washington pass to get reelected, the idiocy of Homo americanus just keeps skyrocketing. I work in customer service; I see it every goddamned day. Clueless imbeciles who can't read a menu, gits who can't understand plain and simple English, idiots who think car stereos are there to entertain other cars...these are but a few of the types of people I hate. But what can we do?
I'll tell you what we can do. If you're at all familiar with hunting, you know that sometimes a herd of animals will overextend itself beyond their territory's carrying capacity. When this happens, those animals will die of starvation unless something happens to cull the herd. That's what "hunting season" is all about; you determine when a herd will be at its peak size, then you let hunters bag a few to thin the herd to a manageable size, so the rest of the herd can survive.
(Some of you can already see where I'm going with this, can't you?)
Idiots are dragging the rest of us down, as we can easily see by examining the numerous governmental social programs that exist to support those who can't or won't support themselves. (Hey, I have nothing against those with genuine problems - it's the real nimrods I'm concerned with here.) What we need to do is establish an idiot hunting license - but only give 'em to people who can prove they're not imbeciles themselves. (For instance, all members of DNRC and many members of the Church of the SubGenius are automatically eligible.) Make the bag limit small to start out: one a day. Every day, anytime an idiot pisses you off, you tag 'im with a paintball. If you see someone with three paint splatters, you get to blow his ass away as a bona fide idiot. After the initial trial period, check the results; most of our problems would show marked improvement. Welfare? Gone, except for the truly needy. Education problems? Hey, the biggest problem education has is that the school system is clogged with a lot of idiots who don't want to be there in the first place! Traffic problems? Dead idiots can't drive! Term limits? RIGHT HERE, BABY! The list goes on and on.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to clean my shotgun and write my Congresscritters....
