The Darwin principle is a universal timeless truth that was not invented by Charles Darwin, but was certainly made famous by him. The Darwin principle is summarized as follows: The best genetic qualities tend to promote survival. The worst genetic qualities tend to promote extinction. Over time, the best qualities are passed on by the survivors and the worst qualities disappear with the losers. Example: The entire forest is brown and it is inhabited by 98 white rabbits and 2 brown rabbits. Eventually, all of the rabbits will be brown because the white ones are highly visible and will be eaten by predators. The two brown rabbits are likely to survive and breed more brown rabbits.

The Darwin principle applies to humans as well. People with bad vision used to get eaten by predators. Now they just wear glasses and breed more nearsighted humans. The human race will eventually become blind because of this unless they can do some fancy gene repair in the future.

Those who choose to use drugs and go through life doing stupid things tend to get killed off by vehicle accidents, overdoses, drug ripoffs, diseases and other mishaps. This rids the gene pool of stupid, defective people so that they cannot breed and raise more stupid, defective people.

Most of the people who are killed by guns can be classified as “Darwinians” (with the exception of a few innocent people who are unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time). Gang members tend to shoot each other, drug users tend to shoot each other and the jerks who abuse their fellow man tend to be shot by the police. Innocent, intelligent people are rarely killed by guns.

The whole point of this message is to point out that outlawing guns will only allow more of the “Darwinians” to propagate which will draw the rest of the gene pool into a downward spiral. We would be much better off to give guns to the violent people in the prisons and let them take care of each other. Guns are not a problem with reasonable and intelligent people. Guns do give them a chance to protect themselves from the “Darwinians” (those who are too violent or too stupid to survive in the world).

I do not advocate killing people who are mentally retarded (when is the last time that you heard of someone who is retarded shooting someone else?) nor do I advocate killing anyone. I simply advocate letting “Darwin” do what he has been doing since life first began. You may find this harsh but I would also apply this principle to refuse free medical treatment to those who insist on abusing alcohol and drugs until they are unable to care for themselves and live their life in the gutter. If they have relatives that will take care of them, then maybe there are some good genes somewhere in the family. If you let “Darwin” take them then you will not have to take care of any children that they might father (or mother). Just ask any Emergency Room what percentage of their resources are taken up by these defective people. If you think that society is in a downward spiral then look here for the reason.
