      <p><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 4px 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="120792132DK018_RIOTING_BREA" border="0" alt="120792132DK018_RIOTING_BREA" align="right" src="http://human-stupidity.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/london-furniture-shop-riot.jpg" width="324" height="184" />Political correctness and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanitarianism" target="_blank">humanitarianism</a> and <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/irrationality/stupid-dogma/human-rights" target="_blank">human rights</a> were invented by civilized intelligent academics.&#160; They might work for civilized intelligent populations.&#160; These good intentions have been maligned for giving more protection to felons then to their innocent law abiding victims. </p>
<p>Applying these rules to uncontrollable criminally minded looters and hooligans has terrible effects: good citizen&#8217;s physical integrity, lives, health, financial integrity get destroyed by such criminals.&#160; </p>
<blockquote><p><em>A furniture shop in Croydon which had been in the same family for five generations was completely destroyed after being torched. </em><em>Owner Trevor Rees, 56, said the business was started in 1867 by his great-great- grandfather, Edwin Reeves, and employed 15 people. <a href="http://news.sky.com/home/uk-news/article/16046240" target="_blank">Sky News</a></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 4px 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="London-riots" border="0" alt="London-riots" align="left" src="http://human-stupidity.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/London-riots.jpg" width="324" height="184" />Killing a few rioters might save lives of innocent people. At least it can prevent HUGE property damage and suffering for millions of citizens who stay locked at home in fear instead of proceeding with their normal productive lives. Order and safety for ordinary citizens should be above the rights of violent dangerous felons. </p>
<blockquote><p><em>Commander Christine Jones said events were &quot;simply inexcusable&quot;.</em> </p>
<p><em>&quot;Ordinary people have had their lives turned upside down by this mindless thuggery,&quot; she said.</em> </p>
<p><em>&quot;The Met will ensure that those responsible will face the consequences of their actions and be arrested.&quot; <a href="http://news.sky.com/home/uk-news/article/16046240" target="_blank">Sky News</a></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Humanely arresting a marauding crowd of arsonists is not practical. It will not protect safety and property of good citizens, it will not stop and prevent imminent danger. </p>
<p><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 4px 10px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: right; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="120817027PM015_RIOTS_AND_LO" border="0" alt="120817027PM015_RIOTS_AND_LO" align="right" src="http://human-stupidity.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/london-riots-16046205.jpg" width="324" height="184" />Put a camera on the sights of the guns of police. Make sure that everyone shot was engaged in an act of dangerous violence, with arms, crow bars, Molotov Cocktails, and was not in self defense against criminals. If non-lethal violence can be used. But don&#8217;t be shy to use deadly force. One can even arrest an entire crowd: have you seen 5 policemen controlling a huge crowd of riotous prisoners, lying on the ground? The prisoners know, one false move and they get shot. </p>
<p>Using lethal force, there will be inevitable collateral damage. Certainly less damage then done by week-long riots.This damage should be accepted and excused, provided it can be shown to be accidental and due to true honest mistakes. Honest serious policemen, and citizens defending their life and property should be excused in case of honest battlefield mistakes. </p>
<p>Yes, we want to provoke to think different. Yes we see that there are problems in our attitude. We see that there are serious problem in the unquestioning humanitarianism that protects criminals and creates havoc. </p>
<p><span id="more-1544"></span>
<p>&#160;</p>
<blockquote><p><em>These are not race riots: </em><em>Though they began, on Saturday afternoon, with a small protest in Tottenham, north London, over the shooting of a dark-skinned man by police under suspicious circumstances, they quickly became a much wider and less purposeful explosion of youth criminality.&#160; </em><em>[...] </em></p>
<p>The small crowds of very young men and women, of every skin colour, typically dressed in almost identical hooded sweatshirts, were on the main streets of the mainly poor neighbourhoods along the city’s northeastern, southern and western boundaries, engaged in running skirmishes with police, looting hundreds of shops, setting dozens of buildings and houses ablaze. <em>       <br /><a title="London police overwhelmed in explosion of violence by futureless youth" href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/london-police-overwhelmed-in-explosion-of-violence-by-futureless-youth/article2123444/" target="_blank">London police overwhelmed in explosion of violence by futureless youth</a></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Yes, try to solve social problems before they become unsolvable. Really confronting taboo topics such as <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/irrationality/stupid-dogma/racial-differences-intelligence" target="_blank">race and iq</a>, immigration, dysgenics, are the first step. People that are born with low IQ (a taboo topic), to low IQ parents, with dysfunctional families (that are more frequent among low IQ people) and in bad social environment (a ghetto of likewise displaced people. </p>
<p>But, don&#8217;t forget to save those in imminent danger, those who are threatened with physical violence. If the use of deadly force can save upstanding citizens, then it is be negligence not to use it.</p>
<h3>Unsuccessful males, an uncontrollable force</h3>
<blockquote><p><em>This is a chronic problem in Britain, which has a “lost generation” of young high-school dropouts far larger than most other Western countries. </em></p>
<p><em>One European Union study this year found that 17 per cent of Britain’s youth are classified as “NEETs” – for Not in Employment, Education or Training, in other words high-school dropouts with no prospects of employment – the fourth-highest percentage in the European Union. There are 600,000 people under 25 in Britain who have never had a day of work. </em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>In the <a title="Environment of evolutionary adaptedness (EEA)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_psychology#Environment_of_evolutionary_adaptedness" target="_blank">EEA</a>, low ranking unsuccessful males do not procreate. This is an evolutionary disaster. Evolutionary psychology has shown that adolescent males are pre-wired to take high risks to gain social status in order to get access to women. Daredevil behavior, risky driving, fights, murder, criminality have their greatest prevalence in adolescence.&#160; It</p>
<p>Such behavior actually makes men attractive to women: bad boys were successful in the ancient <a title="Environment of evolutionary adaptedness (EEA)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_psychology#Environment_of_evolutionary_adaptedness" target="_blank">EEA</a> where female choice and attraction were formed<sub></sub>. Nerdy studious shy males may be successful today, but were not the leaders in the <a title="Environment of evolutionary adaptedness (EEA)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_psychology#Environment_of_evolutionary_adaptedness" target="_blank">EEA</a>.</p>
<p>Such men used to go on crusades, on ships to discover America, engage in violent revolutions, or whatever venue could bring success in life. If they have a 50% chance of dying, and a 10% chance of becoming really successful, by the mathematics of reproductive success, it is worth the risk to those that otherwise don&#8217;t have much of a chance.</p>
<p>As devil&#8217;s advocate, we suggest to seriously analyze taboo solutions like ready availability of <a title="Prostitution | Human-Stupidity" href="http://human-stupidity.com/irrationality/stupid-dogma/prostitution" target="_blank">prostitution</a>, and polyandry (which is historically practiced where one man does not have enough resources for a family. These men are serious trouble, they have nothing to lose and great determination.&#160; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[      
      <p>The Brazilian congress is about to vote the criminalization of homophobia.(&quot;<a title="Evangélicos barram votação de projeto contra homofobia" href="http://g1.globo.com/brasil/noticia/2011/05/evangelicos-barram-votacao-de-projeto-contra-homofobia-1.html" target="_blank">O Globo&quot; newspaper Friday May 13th</a>).&#160; Religious parties and churches oppose the law, because priests preaching against homosexuality would face arrest for the crime of homophobia. The proposed law was amended to exempt priests preaching while inside churches. In other words, anyone outside a church can not voice any negative opinion about homosexuality. </p>
<p>Brazil already has <a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homofobia#Brasil" target="_blank">anti-discrimination laws favoring gays</a> (in addition laws against racism, religious discrimination, etc.).&#160; Business owners, or building managers, who disallowed public display gay deep French kissing face arrest and fines, except if they could prove they also had a history of disallowing heterosexual kissing. Hotels must not discriminate against gay couples. This law would further strengthen existing anti-discrimination laws and impose stiff jail sentences.</p>
<p>This attempt at passing laws criminalizing homophobia comes right after the Brazilian Supreme Court, in a rare unanimous vote, decided to take lawmaking it its own hand and declared that homosexual couples have the same rights as heterosexual couples on all issues.&#160; For example, inheritance, joint tax declarations, joint health insurance, common law marriage, right to property acquired during cohabitation, etc. Some minor doubts remain if this includes the right for gay couples to adopt children.</p>
<h4>No free speech, nor free academic research</h4>
<p>Historically, for anti-discrimination laws, even science is not a valid&#160; excuse: the book &quot;The Bell Curve&quot; was prohibited in Brazil because of the crime of racism, due to long existing laws against racism. The US is not much better, then president Clinton condemned the book, admittedly without having read it. But in the US nobody will be arrested and jailed for research on <a title="Race differences in intelligence &amp; criminality" href="http://human-stupidity.com/awareness/racial-differences">racial differences</a> (they will just be harassed). </p>
<p>It is interesting to note that Brazil&#8217;s and Rio&#8217;s officials fought to win the title &quot;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rio_de_Janeiro_Gay_New_Year%27s_Eve" target="_blank">best gay destination in the world</a>&quot; but are vigorously opposed to &quot;sexual tourism&quot;, meaning heterosexual males in search of sex with Brazilian women.</p>
<h4>The slippery slope from protecting against violence to policing words, thoughts and research</h4>
<p><a href="http://human-stupidity.com/irrationality/stupid-dogma/political-correctness-stupid-dogma" target="_blank">Political correctness</a> started as a well meant attempt to correct legitimate grievances, like violence against homosexuals or other races (especially Blacks) and religion (especially Muslim), and gender discrimination (harassment). The next step, still defensible, punishes hate speech meant to directly and immediately incite violence. </p>
<p>So the initial intent was to outlaw &quot;Kill blacks&quot;, &quot;exterminate Jews&quot;, &quot;beat faggots&quot; speech. But that soon led to stifling thoughts and speech that hurts the sensitive of protected minorities. </p>
<p>It is a serious restriction to freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of research to extend these anti-violence codes to</p>
<ul>
<li>people who tell their kids not to become homosexual or </li>
<li>scholarly researcher&#8217;s writings about <a title="Race differences in intelligence &amp; criminality" href="http://human-stupidity.com/awareness/racial-differences">racial differences</a> in IQ and criminality. </li>
<li>people who warn to avoid parts of town because they are more dangerous (and predominantly black) </li>
</ul>
<p>Homophobic jokes, Racist speech, racist jokes, can get people arrested and jailed. </p>
<p><a href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/religion/geert-wilders-in-court-for-offending-muslims" target="_blank">Geert Wilders in court for offending Muslims (who threaten his life and already killed Theo van Gogh)</a></p>
<p>Almost everything that can be said is offensive to some protected group, or actually constitutes a crime: our society suffers from <a title="strict punishment for normal behavior or trivial infractions" href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/human-rights/overcriminalization-dont-talk-to-cops-refuse-search" target="_blank">overcriminalization</a>. </p>
<p>Public speech, commercial advertising, is very difficult, because it is easy to offend some group, be it Blacks, Indians, women, obese, handicapped, nurses, any group whatsoever. Maybe with the exception of white males that can be bashed at will for allegedly not pertaining to a protected disadvantaged minority. </p>

It is easily forgotten: Human-Stupidity is not really about the scientific discussion and solution of racial theories. We are most interested in unconsciousness, blindness, dogmatism.</p>
<p>We are watching how clear scientific statements by Jensen, Rushton are met with ire and pseudo-scientific rebuttals. Even Mr. James Watson, who is not a normal Nobel Prize winner, but considered one of the most prestigious of Nobel prize winners was destroyed when he dared to speak unpopular truths. Even he is so wrong, where are the scientific rebuttals instead of the ad hominem attacks?</p>
<p>We wish that the truth would be accepted, so the discussion would be based on the truth, not on wishful thinking. Further discussions are here:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/racial-differences-intelligence/race-differences-in-intelligence-how-i-changed-my-mind/comment-page-1#comment-15008">discussion between J Philippe Rushton and Graves </a> kindly sent by our reader EgalitarianJay. First one 10 minute discussion. There Rushton gives precise answers. His opponents manage to find the most ridiculous excuses to defend their positions. &#8220;Race does not exist. Asked if they had 100 Chinese in a shower, 100 Kenyans in a shower, 100 Englishmen.  Can they identify which is which?&#8221; They still could somehow argue they could tell the difference, but somehow the difference is not clear. Hilarious.<br />
Further down on that page you can see the 2 hour-long discussion.</li>

These videos are also on youtube, but part of it already has been deleted by demand of a TV station.  We wish there was an honest way to see these videos respecting the producers. Either to suffer through some commercials, or to do some micro-payments (no, not human-stupidity, but the interested watcher. I.e. we would gladly pay one fee for your own watching)<br />

<p>This movie let Lynn and Rushton speak first, and then Nisbett gives a few counter-examples, and finally Flynn give his opinion. The trick is, that there is no chance for Rushton and Lynn to give a final rebuttal. A discussion of the four would be great.</p>
<p>Let us give Rushton a chance for rebuttal:</p>

      <p>A private rant complaining about &quot;hordes of Asians&quot; chatting on cell phones in the University Library yielded a huge outcry by the political correctness police in press and University politics. The Alexandra Wallace was threatened with disciplinary action, and received death threats. The political correctness hordes are dangerous! Everyone has to step on eggshells and think carefully before uttering a sentence. Free speech be damned.</p>
<h4></h4>
<p>One lone blog defends the right to think and speak (<a href="http://blog.vdare.com/archives/2011/03/16/ucla-vilifies-white-student-for-thought-crime/">UCLA Vilifies White Student For Thought Crime</a> | Vdare)</p>
<ul>
<li>In the politically correct outrage, nobody cares about what she said.
<ul>
<li>Do Asians have a tendency to talk in the college library? Why do library officials not interfere? After all, she is not complaining about breach of a formality (like wearing a turban) but rather about noise that objectively disturbs the ability to study. Is the library at fault not to take up disciplinary action for distubance of peace in library? Any sociologist or political scientist up to watching behavior at the library and doing an unbiased test of her contention? And even her observations are wrong, so what? </li>
<li>Do Asians tend to have the entire large family visit them on the weekends to cook and wash their laundry? This is an interesting observation. Again, even if she is wrong, why disciplinary threats and threats of violence against her. </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Hate laws are problemetic restrictions to constitutionally guaranteed free speech. Initially they served a fairly noble cause, they were meant to prevent incitement of violence, lynching mob incitation and Adolf Hitler style rhetoric to beat up and kill Jews.&#160; But being extended to any harmless uttering of a blonde student. failing to carefully select politically correct wording is troubling. </li>
<li>She was actually pretty careful to hedge what she said. But still not enough. </li>
<li>If she were an official of government, police or the University, maybe there would be a justification for using carefully selected wording. But an average citizen being vilified for some personal opinion which most likely is factually correct? </li>
<li>Human Stupidity has examples where political correctness has serious consequences. From not scanning people at airports (body scans are &quot;child porn&quot;) to searching old white ladies in equal frequency as young muslim men, to restriction of academic research about child sexuality and racial differences. </li>
</ul>

<p><span id="more-1160"></span><br />
<blockquote>In an attempt to produce a humorous YouTube video, I have offended the UCLA community and the entire Asian culture. I am truly sorry for the hurtful words I said and the pain it caused to anyone who watched the video. Especially in the wake of the ongoing disaster in Japan, I would do anything to take back my insensitive words. I could write apology letters all day and night, but I know they wouldn’t erase the video from your memory, nor would they act to reverse my inappropriate action.
<p>I made a mistake. My mistake, however, has lead to the harassment of my family, the publishing of my personal information, death threats, and being ostracized from an entire community. Accordingly, for personal safety reasons, I have chosen to no longer attend classes at UCLA. </p>

</ul>
<p>A black professor can ask such questions. I wonder what would happen if a white professor asks such politically incorrect questions, Highly recommended, though long 53 minute speech. </p>
<p align="right">NOTE for those interested in feminism and men&#8217;s rights:   <br />similar arguments apply to feminist claims re. sex discrimination against females. </p>

<h3>Human-Stupidity Analysis</h3>
<p>Walter E. Williams just states observable FACTS. Refusing also affirmative action: nobody should get undue advantages. Earn by your own merits. </p>
<p>He aptly avoids any mention of incendiary opinions like</p>
<ul>
<li>are blacks less intelligent?</li>
<li>are blacks better athlets in certain fields?</li>
</ul>
<p>Though he observes differences between groups, he does not bother to analyze if they could be genetic. He seems to believe that race differences can be remedied, but avoids discussing these subjects. </p>
<p>I would like to see a female speaker with such an open mind speaking about feminism, female disadvantage, &#8230;.&#160; </p>

<p>In a clear case against free speech, Member of Parliamaent and member of Dutch government is being prosecuted by over-zealous judges &#8211; against the express will of the prosecution. In liberal Holland a leader of the 3rd largest party can not speek freely without risking jail, against the religious and political movement that is threatening his life. Imagine where the freedom of the average European is heading!</p>
<p>Political correctness is prohibiting offenses to Islam, like in</p>
<ul>
<li>Koran burning (Fatwas ordering murder, embassy burning  etc ara much lesser crimes)</li>
<li>caricatures of the prophet (they justify murder, riots, &#8230;)</li>
<li>the example of Wim Wenders. (he is constantly threatened with murder but he, the victim, risks jail for speaking against the murders&#8217; culture)</li>
</ul>
<p>Political correctness is also prohibiting research and scientific arguments about race and intelligence</p>

</ul>
<p>Discussing unpleasant truths is dangerous, gets prosecuted in many countries. Discussing muslim religion is so dangerous that even human-stupidity.com avoids to discuss muslim religion. this is a very rare exception.</p>
<p>The focus here is not analysis of muslim terrorism and religion, but freedom of speech for an articulate and quite moderate politician (listen to muslim preachers to see how moderate Geert Wilders is)</p>
<p>The human stupidity in all the above cases is:</p>
<ul>
<li>pretending to be open-minded, liberal, scientific, and at the same time repress free speech, repress the truth (or at least potential truth).</li>

<h3>Christophe Lemaitre 9.98 First White Man To Run Sub 10 Seconds</h3>
<p>The lone white man running 100 meters in under 10 seconds. 70 blacks and one white are in the select group of Athletes that run 100 meters in under 10 seconds.  Even on the European Championship, he is the only white guy!</p>
<p>Maybe he could be the first white man in decades to qualify for the 100 meter finals? Maybe the races are not equal? Or are whites and Asians just disadvantaged and discriminated in running? See some politically correct attempts to explain away the obvious:</p>
<blockquote><p>Nearly all the sprinters who have beaten the 10-second barrier are of West African descent (with the exceptions of Australian runner Patrick Johnson, French sprinter Christophe Lemaitre and Namibian Frankie Fredericks).[4][5][6] No sprinter of predominantly Asian or East African descent had officially achieved this feat[7][8][9][10], though unofficially the Polish Marian Woronin surpassed the barrier with a time of 9.992 seconds[11], until French athlete Christophe Lemaitre ran in 9.98 on July 9, 2010[12]. Colin Jackson (a mixed race athlete and former world record holder in the 110 metre hurdles)[13] noted that both his parents were talented athletes and suggested that biological inheritance was the greatest influence, rather than any perceived racial factor. Furthermore, successful black role models in track events may reinforce the racial disparity.[8]  <a title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-second_barrier" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-second_barrier">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-second_barrier</a></p></blockquote>
<p>A misunderstanding: some people argue that the fact that there is one guy among 70 blacks is proof that the races are equal. Nobody argues that the races are totally different, it is the famous bell curve: there is a small difference in the mean, and a large difference at the extreme ends at the Bell curve.  Just as there are no white top 10 world championship 100 meter runners, there are no black Math or Physics Nobel Prize winners.</p>
<p>Also very funny: those black racists, who gleefully defend black superiority in 100 meter running, are not aware that by the same logic and theory (see Rushton, below) Blacks are less intelligent and more prone to crime.</p>
<p>More <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/irrationality/stupid-dogma/racial-differences-intelligence" target="_blank">articles on Race</a> on Human-Stupidity.com.  Rushton asserts that research shows blacks to have more testosterone and more fast twitch muscles.  According to <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/racial-differences-intelligence/race-differences-in-intelligence-how-i-changed-my-mind" target="_blank">Rushton&#8217;s racial theories</a>, r-selected populations excel in short time mating strategies, where fighting and running skills are advantagous while k-selection favors more social organisation and long term planning.</p>
<blockquote><p>[Rushton] asserts that Negroids use a strategy more toward an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-selection">r-selected</a> strategy (produce more offspring, but provide less care for them) while Mongoloids use the K strategy most (produce fewer offspring but provide more care for them), with Caucasoids exhibiting intermediate tendencies in this area.</p>
<p>He further asserts that Caucasoids evolved more toward a K-selected breeding strategy than Negroids because of the harsher and colder weather encountered in Europe, while the same held true to a greater extent for Mongoloids. Rushton argues that the survival challenges of making warm clothes, building durable shelter, preserving food, and strategically hunting large animals all selected genes for greater intelligence and social organization among the populations that migrated to cold climates. <a title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race,_Evolution,_and_Behavior" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race,_Evolution,_and_Behavior">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race,_Evolution,_and_Behavior</a></p></blockquote>

      <h3>Prison rape: unconscious revenge &amp; corporal punishment</h3>
<p>It is more honest to legalize corporal punishment in jail (a big taboo) , then furtively,unconsciously introduce corporal punishment in the form of tolerated or even encouraged prison rape. </p>
<h3>We are unconscious vigilantes, self deceived &quot;non-violent humanists&quot;.</h3>
<p>By condoning, ignoring, and not actively combating prison rape, we have indirectly and furtively introduced corporal punishment (rape) and death penalty (HIV through prison rape). Self Deception &amp; Unconsciousness overcome a politically-correct-taboo of non-violence and human rights&amp; dignity for bandits.</p>
<p>My suggestion is to be honest, and to officially and consciously legalize what we have been doing unconsciously.</p>
<ol>
<li>Flogging and Caning is more humane and just then Prison Rape. </li>
<li>Prison rape is tolerated because people think criminals &quot;deserve&quot; it </li>
<li>So I propose to be honest and give people what they deserve in a more controlled and correct way. </li>
<li>Singapore and Saudi Arabia may teach how to implement corporal punishment </li>
</ol>

<p>I am Devil&#8217;s advocate, and like to be provocative, thought producing, break taboos, shed light on the unconscious. I am aware that this is quite provocative, part serious, part exaggeration, intent on shaking up people.</p>
<p>The topic of prison rape as unconscious punishment fits the title of this site: Taboos, Dogmas, Religion make even the Intelligent blind, irrational, &quot;stupid&quot;.</p>

<li>Still, no reaction by feminist who instead worry that consensual sex with a 17 year old is rape and that <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/prostitution/feminist-arguments-against-prostitution-dismantled" target="_blank">expensive luxury prostitutes are victims of rape</a>.                 </li>

<h3>The wrong people get prison-raped</h3>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p> <span id="more-516"></span>
<ol>
<li><strong>The taboo: official revenge against criminals and corporal punishment is a no-no&#160; <br /></strong></li>
<li><strong>The secret unconscious taboo motive for being quiet about prison rape: the subconscious, but often outspoken attitude: &quot;the felons deserve to be raped&quot;.        <br /></strong></li>
<li><strong>The wrong people get raped: </strong>The problem is that the hard core gang felons normally rape and sexually enslave those convicted of minor crime., An inversion of the vigilante attitude: those that most &quot;deserve to be raped&quot; are the rapists:the hard core violent gang criminals that deserve extra punishment. The rape victims are
<ul>
<li>the non-violent criminals least deserving of extra punishment. And, </li>
<li>convicted &quot;rapists&quot; are singled out to be raped by &quot;real men&quot;, &quot;real criminals&quot;. Nowadays, most convicted &quot;rapists&quot; are victims of feminist witch hunts. Under inversion of the burden of proof (&quot;guilty until proven innocent&quot;) get jailed for consensual underage sex, alleged unproven date rape, marital rape, inappropriate fondling of minors, or simply false vengeful accusations.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p>So the unconscious unspoken attitude is that some people deserve to be raped, ought to receive corporal punishment. So why not start consciously doling out corporal punishment to those that &quot;deserve it&quot;, but </p>
<ul>
<li>observing due process </li>
<li>punishing the right people who deserve it </li>
<li>not causing a public health menace with STD and AIDS </li>
</ul>
<h2>Whipping: a more humane punishment then rape</h2>
<ol>
<li>flogging and caning is more humane then rape </li>
<li>Flogging saves a lot of cash compared to locking offenders up in prisons for months and years </li>
<li>Whipping is a deterrent. Jail is &quot;coming home&quot; for many gang members who will live among their gang friends with their personal sex slaves. </li>
</ol>
<p>Will I start a campaign to introduce corporal punishment? No! My purpose is to raise awareness and consciousness through provocation.</p>

      <p>Charter Cities, modelled after Hong Kong or Shanghai, can foster development in third world countries, suggests eminent scientist Paul Romer. Basically, Neo-colonialism: a piece of land in a third world country is given to a first world country to create a charter city to establish the rule of law. That city then has the best of both worlds:</p>
<ol>
<li>a secure legal system for investors, and</li>
<li>access to third world cheap labor.</li>
</ol>
<p>There will be no democracy, voting is with feet: if you like the system you can go there. If you don&#8217;t like it, don&#8217;t go there.</p>

<p>Human-Stupidity comments&#8221; on Charter Cities</p>
<ol>
<li>Very creative idea countering conventional human stupidity.
<ul>
<li>countering the anti-colonialism dogma: poor nations have proven already that they cannot get efficient administration. So an efficient administration bound by British, Canadian, German law is being provided</li>
<li>countering the &#8220;democracy dogma&#8221;: inhabitans of the charter cites do not vote, they can vote with their feet only to come or to leave. Democracy in poor third world nations has shown to be rife with populism and voting for corrupt politicians.</li>
<li>Billions in developing aid that is funnelled into corrupt nations could be applied more safely in</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>There still are stupidities in Romer&#8217;s suggestion. Devil&#8217;s Advocate thinks Romer is optimistic in several points or does not dare to face certain facts.
<ul>
<li>colonial powers in the past were world powers without qualms to use their might.
<ul>
<li>Most third world nations would not tolerate a successful rich foreign city on their soil for 99 years. Either a populist president would invade it, or use threats to get concessions. Or</li>
<li>it could not be defended against marauding gangs Somali Style, or</li>
<li>invasion by the poorest of the poor with no skills, slum style.</li>
<li>Romer&#8217;s suggestion to use toothless nations like Canada or Germany might backfire. Cuba is more likely to respect Guantanamo in US hands then governed by Canada. Of course, even a world power might not  be willing to militarily defend a charter city that does not bring power,status or exploitation profits like original colonies</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Modern democracies&#8217; laws might not be a viable example. Modern democracies are rife with welfare freeloaders, criminals exploiting human rights, unskilled immigration overload etc. Devil&#8217;s Advocate enjoyed the suggestion of a Spiegel reader to allow China to set up a Charter City in Germany.</li>
<li>I barely dare to mention <a title="Race differences in intelligence &amp; criminality" href="http://human-stupidity.com/awareness/racial-differences">racial differences</a> because now I lose 95% of my readers who subscribe to the unproven but firmly defended credo that &#8220;all races are equal&#8221;, or worse, &#8220;races don&#8217;t exist&#8221;.  All successful examples like Hong Kong were in Asia, with highly intelligent and socially well behaved Asians. Respectable research (discredited by political correctness) on <a title="Race differences in intelligence &amp; criminality" href="http://human-stupidity.com/awareness/racial-differences">racial differences</a> shows that Asians are most intelligent, closely follwed by whites, and, unfortunately blacks trailing. So a model like this might have serious difficulties in Africa, especially if these intrinsic problems of genetic propensity to lower intelligence, less respect for order and more violence are not taken into consideration. This was pointed out by <a href="http://human-stupidity.com/stupid-dogma/racial-differences-intelligence/james-watson-scientist-persecuted-race-intelligence" target="_blank">Nobel Prize winner James Watson who got shunned for telling scientific truth</a>. I believe that the Paul Romer&#8217;s model can be successfully applied to Africa, but chances for success are greater when the model is based on scientific truth and not on well meant fiction.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Human Stupidity wishes success to Paul Romer&#8217;s Charter Cities. A refreshing idea against conventional stupidity.</p>

      <p>Going to a beach resort in Haiti, leaving money in the impoverished country, is &#8220;unethical&#8221;.  Feasting, overeating and being obese in neigboring Dominican Republic, or anywhere else in the world is ok.  Political correctness going overboard.</p>
<blockquote><p>Blogs and message boards have been full of outrage and disgust at the idea of tourists frolicking in the sun while bodies pile up in Port-au-Prince and quake survivors struggle to stay alive. [...]<br />
&#8220;&#8230; How can you sit there and say, &#8216;Waiter, bring me a drink&#8217; while I&#8217;m on a private beach &#8230; knowing that 100 miles away, people are dying,&#8221; Jones said.<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/01/21/haiti.tourism.ethics/index.html" target="_blank"><br />
</a>Source: <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/01/21/haiti.tourism.ethics/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/01/21/haiti.tourism.ethics/index.html</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Of course, instead of talking, maybe these do-gooders should all embark to Haiti as volunteer helpers and donate all their wages to Haiti development. This would cause a positive impact.  Being obese and overeating in Paris, Los Angeles or Kansas is ok. Out of sight, out of mind.</p>
<p>I am so glad CNN talked to a sensible intelligent person, so I don&#8217;t need to say more:</p>
<blockquote><p>Haiti&#8217;s plight wouldn&#8217;t improve if the cruise ships were diverted to another nearby island and pretended the disaster wasn&#8217;t happening, agreed Chris MacDonald, a senior fellow at Duke University&#8217;s Kenan Institute for Ethics and a philosophy professor at Saint Mary&#8217;s University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He also writes The Business Ethics Blog.</p>
<p>&#8220;The cruise ships aren&#8217;t hurting anyone, in fact they&#8217;re doing some good, they&#8217;re bringing some help,&#8221; MacDonald said.</p>
<p>People who believe it&#8217;s disrespectful for tourists to enjoy themselves so close to a disaster zone should realize that the alternative of avoiding the area wouldn&#8217;t be more respectful, MacDonald added.</p>
<p>The proximity sets off our gut reactions, but it doesn&#8217;t seem to make any real moral difference, he said.</p>
<p>Mullis pointed out that the Dominican Republic &#8212; Haiti&#8217;s touristy neighbor on the island of Hispaniola &#8212; is also close to the disaster but is doing business as usual.</p>
