South Carolina Lt. Governor Makes Disgusting Eugenics Comments

While South Carolina Lt. Governor Andre Bauer has had a reputation for his obnoxious and irresponsible behavior for at least a few years, it appears his latest display has rivaled, if not topped, his previous endeavors. As the South Carolina Governor’s race begins to pick up steam, Bauer spoke at a town hall meeting last Thursday where his remarks have drawn a significant amount of criticism. This is due to the fact that during the course of his speech he likened welfare recipients to stray animals and suggested that they breed too much. (AP)
Bauer said: “My grandmother was not a highly educated woman, but she told me as a small child to quit feeding stray animals. You know why? Because they breed! You’re facilitating the problem if you give an animal or a person ample food supply. They will reproduce, especially ones that don’t think too much beyond that.” (AP)


After being confronted with criticism from rival candidates Bauer said his comments were taken out of context and that he wishes he would have used a different metaphor. He said that he believes the government should expect welfare recipients to “better themselves” as well as require them to take drug tests and attend parent-teacher conferences. (AP)
