It's easy to control what a two year old does so the parents are obviously doing this on purpose.

Two year olds are going to throw tantrums anyway so that is hardly an excuse for anything.

I say arrest the parents and put the kid somewhere he will be taken care of properly.
 
I cannot understand how anyone could find this even remotely funny. Pathetic? Sure. Infuriating? Yup. Funny? Not by a long shot. These "parents" need the child taken away from them, and they need to be put in jail.

There's gnarly stuff going on all over Indonesia and you're getting your panties in a bundle over one smoking baby?

As compared to the people on this board getting their panties in a wad over iPad cases? Yes, I happen to think the health of an innocent child is important. And yes, I think this is clearly a case of child abuse. But what I was getting my "panties in a wad" over was the insensitive jerk who thought that a case of child abuse was "funny". Oh, gee, was that you?

Well THANK YOU, NBC! You could have told me that before I had to sit through an ad for Off! mosquito repellant! :rolleyes:
 
I had a 'frash' so gave up. Thats a crash caused by Flash but I'm sure everybody knew that? ;)
 
Poverty humor?

You know, like how rednecks have those stupid ass t-shirts that say things like, "I've got the body of a god, sadly it's buddha," and Dale Earnhart jackets.

They blow cigarette smoke in their dog's ears to watch them writhe and even give them beer and spook them. As well, in my time in Mexico, I saw some people tie a rooster off to a dog's collar and laugh as they went at it. They were the poor farmer type.

I guess when you're just hopelessly poor, it's funny to make other things miserable?
 
I would normally say this is natural selection at work, but the parents aren't reaping any consequences for their (or the baby's) actions, and subsequently won't be killed for being so stupid. Therefore Darwin fails on this example, unless somebody does us all a favor and puts a nice fat one in their temples.

Can't say Darwinism really applies to the baby either... I can't really hold a mere child who is barely able to form congruent thoughts accountable to evolutionary trends; once older, now that's a different story.

With that said, the sick part in me does find this a little funny, especially all of the imagery involved. But I digress, as most of us will simply repress this little inkling of a thought.
