His wife is 16 and about to have 3 kids.
His mother was expecting another.

People should stop breeding like flies. Its the cause of most of the worlds ills.

Bad parenting is one of the cause of social ills, and its not limited to young mothers.

Bad management and exploitation is the cause of the worlds ills.

I read somewhere (maybe here) that the world population could fit in Texas with enough room to give every family a plot for a house and land enough to feed themselves.

You make some big assumptions about the family, I have no idea if they are true, But neither do you.

That maybe physically and geologically possible, but you have to take into account the nature of humans. Everybody would want to live comfortable lives. They would commit crimes in order to live that comfortable life while sharing Texas with 6.6 billion other people.

If many cannot find that comfortable life as it is now, everyone would be killing each other within days if all the humans on earth is confined into a land the size of Texas.

Same thing applies everywhere. Everybody wants to live comfortable lives.

741780 2009-01-25 03:29:00 How does that analogy work in comparison with said crime?

The analogy does not "work in comparison with said crime".

The analogy was used the context of responding to a comment that the "crim" is responsible for a bystander being shot in error by the police.

The police are responsible for the results of discharging their weapons.

That would eliminate all the Muslims, Nth Koreans, Iranians and probably 90% of all the others from living there.

It was to point out how the worlds resources are exploited, and how the world is no where near being over populated. There is no suggestion peace would suddenly break out if we suddenly made everyone neighbours.

No, it's not. At least physically it's not.

When you take into account human greed and selfishness, our world is quite grossly over populated.

741784 2009-01-25 05:04:00 For those who make comparisons with deer hunters killing their mates and being sent to jail
The difference is the deer is not armed with a gun, nor is the deer allegedly firing at a truck driver

There is a huge difference where there is no requirement to fire unless you are sure of your target, and being suddenly placed in a life or death situation

Besides if I wanted to get rid of someone and they had no idea of my intentions, I would take them deer hunting

741786 2009-01-25 07:22:00 I'm glad he's got a decent job and is actually caring enough to marry the mother of his child. But at 17 he's too young to have that many children in my opinion.This in itself is a joke. Is this you trying to be grown up, and pretentious, or just downright naive? People have sex, they have kids. Seems this guy had his head screwed on and was trying to do his bit and actually provide for his family. He wasn't sitting on his ass waiting for Thursday to roll round. And yet here is you, in your knowledgeable way bringing him down.

Grow up.Take your own advice

No, it's not. At least physically it's not.

When you take into account human greed and selfishness, our world is quite grossly over populated.Lets look at human greed more closely shall we. Do you really need all those lovely specs in your signature??

Point proven, case shut

And yeah, the police got it wrong ..... again
