we are not having population issues in the US
we do have a consumption issue that is creating destruction of resources all over the world

  anyone who claims to have more complex reasons MUST be lying?
I didn't say they were lying, I just feel it's a statement made by some family that doesn't want kids and that may be one of the reasons, but when they are discussing this topic, that is the reason they use
Mostly because we live in a society where it is looked down upon if you are married and don't have kids
so just saying 'we really don't want the hassle/cost of raising a family and just want to live our life without that" should be fine

but maybe you are right, this is the only reason they have.
They have spent their whole life saving and planning to have children, Set up a 529, painted the kids bedroom and then read the news and were like 'man, even though we really wanted to have kids, in 30 or so years when they are adults, things might be so bad we don't want to bring someone into that"

clearly particular issue grinds your gears, for whatever reason... but it's just strange that you, a generally level-headed person IMO, need to project your interpretation on everyone else and deny them the possibility of having justification(s) different than yours. 
I would say this is accurate, but I'm not denying them for having a justification, I just think it's virtue signaling rather than the sole reason

let me be clear they and think and do whatever they want, I would never stop them
but I'm allowed to have an opinion on their presentation of their decision
For me when people say they do X because of Y...I feel that often Y is a minor factor and X was happening, but now they have Y as cover for the decision
who the fuck knows, I wish no ill will
 

oh and get the fuck off my lawn before I fill you with buckshot

that was kind of amazing to watch

Made me think energy companies could outfit the turbines with LED for not that much and do fantastic Pink Floyd light shows
so that also sounds hideious

Funny, but for a hurricane it doesn't use the most famous pic?

You know why I love humans? Because we can dismiss tragedy, with comedy.
