Al Gore recently advised the world that the "problem" of global warming was not just the concern of the developed (i.e., polluting) nations but also a concern for the developing nations.

You see, it's not just cars that are a threat to the Earth, but people too. Yes, people. I know what you're thinking--"he couldn't have meant that"--but he did. He warned that a lot of people make a lot of pollution and man, are there a lot of people in the developing world, or what?

If a Republican had made that statement the headlines would have read Republicans Claim There Are Too Many Dark-Skinned People or Republicans Call For Population Cap On Dark-Skinned People. So why didn't that happen when Al Gore called for fewer dark-skinned people?

Well, the liberal media bias is one reason. After all, when a liberal calls for population controls on non-European males it must be for a good reason, so there's no harm, and no need to look more closely at what was said.

Not so fast, though. In previous socialist movements there have been calls for the reduction in the populations of non-European males "so that we all may live better". The reasoning was much the same: we need "better living space" so the "bad" must first be removed. Only now the "bad" are people who use technology and/or people who are living in "developing nations". Anyone with an almanac can tell you the race of most developing nations. It's almost all non-white, and definitely all non-white European male.

So why does Al Gore really want to reduce the populations of non-white countries? It can't simply be because of global warming. These nations could adopt draconian laws about polluting, after all, and become eco-paradises. If they don't pollute then where's the problem?

The real problem for Al Gore and his eco-allies is that these people make poor candidates for the new eco-socialism. They either already live in socialist countries, and thus want to follow the same path as the XSSR, or they live in countries where capitalism is taking them from ready-made dependents to economic un-dependents and thus unlikely to desire statist nannyism government.

So how better to reign in these future non-socialists than to apply politically correct racial population controls in the name of the greater good?!

The problem, Mr. Gore, is that this smacks of racial genocide and the worst of Nazi propaganda. We do not need fewer dark-skinned people to all live better, we need fewer eco-loons and less eco-nonsense. So put your population controls back in the socialist bad idea box from whence they came--as well as the rest of your eco-nonsense!
