Disappear from the face of the Earth, would you?

If so, how far would you go to make that happen?

1. Gladly -
would it involve getting all dressed up?

OK, I'd do that.

Would it involve spending time with them beforehand?

Yeah, well, all right - but NO TOUCHING.

Would getting rid of them involve anything splattering on me?

I'd have to have a HAZMAT outfit, for sure.

Would it involve any physical exertion?

I could hire someone to take care of that for me, so no problem.

Would I have to stay overnight, and are the accommodations going to be at least 4 star?

OK.

Would I have to explain what I did to anyone?

I could do that.

Is there the possibility of jail time?

Count me out.................................

2. I keep praying for the "reverse Rapture"
Where Satan comes up and takes them all back to Hell with him :evilgrin:

5. No, but I would make it so they fart green gas and
therefore could be identified by sight.

6. Hell yes.
I would gladly drive them to the nearest space ship in my truck, and wave goodbye.

Could we get some other planet to take them, maybe there is vacant planet that nobody is using.


We could tell them it was the rapture, but they had to go in a space ship.

9. I would rather snap my fingers, and have them really REALIZE how truly conned
and DUPED they've been by the super-rich rightwing politicians & lobbyists.

That they've been making liars such as limbaugh and fox "news" etc richer than fucking sin by supporting them, AGAINST their own and their children's best interests...I would love to have them really truly understand this FACT.

Actually, I'd love them all to be forced to realize FACTS. Like the man who couldn't tell a lie...make it so that republics are forced to face FACTS.

And hey, likewise for Dems & Indys.

11. I would have the crazy ones disappear
but not the normal conservatives. I think sane conservatives are needed to provide checks on some of the wackier ideas of the left.

I have lived in a town run by hippies, and it was lame.

The solution to the "homeless" problem is NOT to build a half-million dollar campground with free food, showers, and picnic tables down by the marsh. The solution to the "homeless" problem is to frog-march the trustafarians down to the bus station and have them use dad's credit card to buy a ticket to some other town to hang out and smoke dope in. After they're gone, provide services for the 5 homeless people who are left, and who actually need the services.

An interesting proposition. In what city did you experience this?

14. No. Their numbers would just be replaced in no time at all.
I think that societies have a certain minimum number of functional nutjobs. If the existing nutjobs are removed, there are people just on the edge of reasonableness who'll swoop in and claim that niche.

16. The issue isn't "disappearing" them, the issue is not making more of them.
