Apparently, Nadya Suleman has received death threats. Yes, folks, someone threatened to kill her based supposedly on their virulent opposition to the thought of paying for public assistance for her and her kids. I'm just gonna quote Julie, cause I have no response for shit like this except foaming at the mouth.

"...this actually has very little to do with who has to pay what and how many kids an unemployed single mother should or shouldn’t have. You don’t get this type of widespread, hyper-violent reaction from a question of economics - not even, I would argue, from people disgusted with the Wall Street bailouts. No, this is about “the worship of motherhood and the hatred of mothers.” And I don’t think you can have one without the other."

Honestly, I think she made a stupid decision to have more children at this point in her life as opposed to waiting until she finished school. Regardless, People issuing death threats about this is just WRONG.

I think her decision is none of our business.
