Dawkins sparks outrage for saying Down Syndrome babies should be aborted

[Cato]

To be fair..I do wish Dawkins had a little more "internet accumen"...because while the majority of us know what he means, a lot of theists don't, and watching them furiously circlejerk on my news feed over a 140 character tweet is really annoying.

I see it differently. I have no problem with the provocation, intentional or otherwise and rather enjoy the cranks exposing their intolerance, ignorance and general idiocy. I also don't think it is Dawkins' (or anyone else's) responsibility to consider the sensitivities of those who will vigorously disagree regardless of tone. I can't ignore the fact that these same people are usually foaming at the mouth while telling people (including other believers of a slightly different flavor) they will burn forever in hell or tells a woman who makes the agonizing choice to have an abortion that she is a murderer.

I can't abide these hypersenstive professional offense takers and their woefully mispaced howls of persecution. If something anybody says serves to twist their panties, all the better.
