look ma! no han- *crash*

There's a funny thing about humans. We are absolutely appaled when nature takes its course and someone dies because of their own stupidity, and therefor we do everything within our power to stop that.

Humans seem to be the only species that is this way. The rest of nature understands the order of the universe.

Take, if you will, black widow spiders. During each egg-laying session, a black widow spider can birth up to 750 babies. On average, 1 to 12 of those survive. Those 1 to 12 are the fittest.

So goes survival of the fittest. Imagine if the other 738 black widow babies that decided to try to swim or explore the large, gaping jaws of a predator were allowed to survive by giving them black widow protective gear.

Would you really want 738 stupid black widow spiders running around your neighborhood? I know I wouldn't.

Now I'm not trying to be some survivalist "let's give them all big sticks and see who survives" kind of guy, but what I am saying, is that people who go drag racing, try to jump off a three-story building onto a trampoline and drink things that are stored under the kitchen sink are just asking for it. Oh yea, there's one entry before this.
