WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

British Airways all but blatantly states that all males are child molesters.

Not too familiar with the Daily Mail. Is this the UK version of Weekly World News? Or has an airline really become THAT stupid?

Hell, won't someone think of the women? Maybe I wouldn't want to sit next to a child I didn't know [which is all children], either!

Really, airlines, trains -- any public transport -- should have child-free options, anyway, to spare the sane of us from having to deal with other people's mistakes. There should also be child-free restaurants, movies after 9pm, you name it, I will tell you "no kids allowed" would improve it.

Then again, my dream is a child-free town, so you see where i am coming from.

I'm sorry that apparently some child devestated you in some horrific way. I'll be sure that you'll never come across my "mistakes".

Thanks, I appreciate that, as I hate the filthy, loud things with a passion. No one particularly devestated me, I just don't like them, as is my right as a fully-developed adult.

You get huge credit for not wanting to force me to be around them.

As long as I've known her, she's had this hatred of children. I've never understood it myself. But everyone is wired differently.

Now me? After so many years working at Toys R Us, It's usually the PARENTS I can't stand. Especially the way they act on Black Friday.

It usually doesn't have anything to do with "some child devestating" people- it has to do with the proliferation of horribly misbehaving children, who are just encouraged to be public nuisances by their parents. Unfortunately, they seem to far outnumber the well behaved ones- whether they do in fact or not they make themselves quite obviously known with the crying, screaming, running into strangers, etc.

Here's my contention, go ahead and take the world "child" and replace it with any other marginalized group.

"I hate blacks and believe they are mistakes."

Do you see how this statement is an emotional landmine?

This person has every right to feel and say something like this, but it's liable to make a lot of people around her feel like punching her in the mouth.

Come try it, I dare you.
