I think a few people missed what I meant by the title. This wasn't an article about porn stars at all.Quote:

So far as drug-smugglers swallowing things, drugs and greed are good at turning people into morons.
I don't see how they're morons simply for doing something you wouldn't.Quote:

I'm not sure that I'd ever do it, but that doesn't make it stupid. So no, no I don't.Quote:

I really don't understand. We're talking about risking your life with a very good chance, whilst commiting a crime - for money.Quote:
So no, no I don't.
It makes him a criminal. Not all poor people steal. Some *gasp!* go find work, do anything LEGAL and SENSIBLE to earn money and live respectfully.Quote:

As for dire situations, yes, people often do crazy things. But doing stupid and crazy things that could seriously risk your lives for nothing more than money is just that - stupid.
Umm....and? Whats not to understand?Quote:

It's not really all that life threatening, I mean condoms are made to not
break. Their entire reason for being is to not break. Of course it happens,
but having it pass slowly through your digestive system is nothing for a
condom really...and even if it were to break there's still a good chance
that you'd survive it because someone would notice you convulsing on the
floor and you'd have your stomach pumped. This doesn't make them
morons. Maybe a bit greedy, but not morons. Would I do this? No. I'm not
a greedy person, and if I wanted to get drugs through airport security I'd
just wear briefs and crotch the drugs...it's pretty easy to do.

What other standard is there? It's like morality. For me, risking my life for a less-than-respectable amount of money, and commiting a crime for it, is stupid, idiotic, and immoral.Quote:

Condoms weren't made for such highly acidic enviorments. The stomach is a much more acidic enviorment than the vagina or anal canal. Condoms dissolve in the stomach.Quote:

Being greedy doesn't equal being a moron. Shoving a condom filled with toxic material down your throat for a little money is being a moron.Quote:
Maybe a bit greedy, but not morons.
I just can't grasp or comprehend such logic. O____OQuote:

What you think is "stupid" can be seen has courageous to some people, especially those willing to sacrifice their lives so that their family can live better for a month longer. I'm not saying the smuggler at the airport is doing it for his family, he might have other goals, but like I said: desperate != stupid.
