General Questions is for factual questions. This isn’t factual.
I would move this to IMHO or Great Debates, but I’m pretty sure that the unnecessary racist and homophobic remarks are just going to derail the entire thread. So instead I am just going to close this.
Feel free to start a new thread in the appropriate forum (IMHO if you just want to poll what others think, GD if you want to argue about it), focusing only on the pain issue and the two choices, and without the racist and homophobic remarks.
