Maher explained his views on life and death when Neil deGrasse Tyson, an astrophysicist and host of StarTalk Radio, raised the death penalty.

Quote
“You support the death penalty, according to my notes,” Tyson said.  “Isn’t it largely Republican?  They may not have birthed the idea, but?”

“Yeah, I guess so,” Maher said.  “I mean I have a lot of ideas that you might consider conservative.  But I feel like on that, I’m just consistent, like the pope is consistent.  The pope is consistently pro-life; I’m consistently pro-death.”

“I am for the death penalty, although I do believe in more DNA testing,” Maher continued.  “My motto is, ‘Let’s kill the right people.’  I’m pro-choice.  I’m for assisted suicide.  I’m for regular suicide.  I’m for whatever gets the freeway moving.  That’s what I’m for.”

“It’s too crowded,” Maher continued.  “So, the planet is too crowded and we need to promote death.”

“When I look at the Venn diagram of people who are pro-death penalty and pro-choice, I don’t think they intersect,” Tyson replied. “You may be the lone person in the world at that intersection.”

“Absolutely not, I’ve met plenty of people who have the same feelings,” Maher said.

“I’m not randomly going around the street saying, ‘Hey we’re going to kill you,’” he said.  “I mean we’re talking about people who’ve earned it.  But as I say, you know, kill the right people.  Kill the right people.”

Maher then detailed how his views on abortion tie into his “pro-death” stance.  “I’m just not one of those people who thinks all life is precious, you know?  I bet you a lot of people wouldn’t say that, but if you’re pro-choice, maybe that’s really what you’re thinking anyway.”

“I mean this is the big controversy that Rick Santorum brought up,” Maher said.  “He does not like prenatal testing because he says that leads to abortion, because people find out that they’re going to have a child who is not normal in some way and they have an abortion because they don’t want to raise a child with severe challenges.

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that -- to not bring someone in the world whose life is going to be so miserable in so many ways, so severely compromised,” Maher said.

“I mean it’s not that hard to create life, it’s teeming everywhere.  It’s something a dog can do.”

Of course they don't intersect, you nit! That's because they're on a parallel course! It's all about the culture of death that the left is perversely attracted to. maher isn't in favor of the death penalty for its crime deterrent value - he's attracted because he is a sociopath who hates life and wants people dead.

This is a mentality that could easily, easily sit by - or even cheer - if the "right people" were being slaughtered by his preferred government.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

  • Get some!
It's the fatal conceit of soi-disant Secular Humanists: they don't just say "God is Dead", they go a step further and elevate humanity (i.e. themselves) into that role. So they get to, literally, decide things like who lives and who dies.

These types rarely have the stomach for it themselves, as it's dirty and too much like work. So they always enlist a corps of thuggish enforcers to do it for them, which I guess also puts in just enough degrees of separation to allay whatever latent fragments of morality remain in their brain stems.  Maher tries to pass his off as that of an irreverent, curmudgeonly critic and satirist, but this is not just shock comedy. As IDP notes, there are people who honestly would be cheerleaders for offing the "right" people. One day they'll find out they themselves have become the "right" people.

He meant "the left people".
I'm not always engulfed in scandals, but when I am, I make sure I blame others.

Maher fancies himself being one of "the left people", after all the wrong people have been disappeared.

He is on the Progressive side of death, the hardcore Margaret Sanger wing of the leftist fringe.
