Sociologist on the bus

The smartest thing I've done lately is buy myself a two-zone

    RIPTA bus pass - $34.50 for one month. But I must warn people

    unsophisticated in matters sociological : prepare yourself for encounters

    not with the " worthy poor " right out of a Charles Dickens novel- but

    with the the most brainless, wretched freaks - of all races and

    nationalities. Now I know what types inspired the H.P Lovecraft story :

    " The Horror at Redhook ". Did Lovecraft have a prophetic vision of the

    future of Rhode Island - where out of the lowest of the low degenerates

    a new race would arise, even more HORRIBLE ?

          I am not about to hang up an Adolph Hitler in my bedroom. But I

    must ask : Is there a gentler, kinder way to rid the civilized world

    of the sub-human super breeders ? Is Eugenics still a dirty word ?

         The problem here is not so much shameful poverty but the very

    decay of humanity !   It is hard to see humanity in beasts .

         Not a cheerful letter today I know.
