No completely sane person drinks alcohol or smokes. If we'd discovered either of those two in the modern era, they be banned, and banned hard.

They just got grandfathered in.

I.........drink alcohol, and about every day

one beer or so

I drink as well,I never said I was completely sane

I enjoy a beer about twice a week a scotch maybe every six months and wine on special occasions for cooking. I smoke a good cigar every 6 months or so. I consume cannabis daily though for medical reasons, which do people have a bigger problem with?

Personally the cigar.

YOU BURN WINE FOR COOKING!?

You monster.

lol

Jesus drank wine. Moderation is key

He also died.

Hitler drank water, checkmate.

He also gassed jews, you know what else is a gas? Oxygen.

CNN is reporting that the madman behind the false nuclear alarm is none other then Baron Trump who's father let him to steal command of the alert warning station from the transgendered africian americian imigrant from the nation of Niger. The officer was removed from their command under the new highly controversal ruling that no transgendered people may serve posts.

So, apparently, it's being considered if having five or more children is considered 'taboo' or not in Canada.
Unless you come from a 3'rd world country, then it's perfectly fine to have over 10, obviously.

Yes, they bring up the 'carbon footprint' argument.

"And if the birth rate in Canada declines, so what? As old You-Know-Who cuts off aid and not-for-profits that educate on abortion, restricts immigration and stops sending money to countries that need it, we will have a steady supply of smart and talented immigrants."

taboo is much different than illegal.

taboo is social, not legal.

for example, 5+ kids is a bit frowned upon here in the states. 5 is usually the higher end of normal and 6 turns into redneck/low intellectual/low income territory. Usually because the cost to raise that many children is starting to reach a point of easily breaking the bank.

...I know? The point is that it is suggested that it should be looked down upon.

And if the couple can afford it, I don't see a problem.

true, but i would imagine the reason people are considering looking down on it is because the vast majority of people usually cannot afford it. At least not without state help, but that is a different issue all together.

either way, society will either look down on it or not by its own evolution, not because someone says we should or shouldn't

chances are family's who can afford it will get a reaction of "wow, you have that many kids? i had no idea. Never would have guessed" and those who can't would get an "of course you have that many kids, i mean look at you."

seems to be the human response to these things

people you dislike are dumb and low intellectual, people you like are smart, and you are an ungodly saint who can do no wrong.

I just was pointing out the hypocrisy when it comes to this kind of thing, while the people with this kind of mentality have nothing to say about refugees or migrants from 3'rd world countries coming over to ours and doing the same thing.

they probably do have something to say....and locked themselves into a corner because they can't differentiate criticism from racism so now they can't comment or they are "x-phobic"

Whether they have something to say but are not, or simply just don't have anything to say about it in the first place, it makes no difference since the effect is still the same.

perhaps they only think white people having children period should be taboo.

and fail to see the irony of such a statement in the name of "being a decent person" and "equality"

Well, given how that's the battlecry of the far left these days, I wouldn't be surprised.

@JadenFrostwolf > birth rate less than 1
> complains about carbon footprint from having children
🤔

😮

we'll just import people from the 3rd world to replace our population so that they can pay for our social security

😮
