Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite which causes toxoplasmosis, considered to be the third leading cause of death attributed to foodborne illness in the United States. While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that over 20% of the U.S. population carries the parasite, the only known reservoir of the infectious form of the parasite (the oocyst) are cats.
1. the third leading cause of death attributed to foodborne illness in the United States
2. the only known reservoir of the infectious form of the parasite (the oocyst) are cats
Therefore:
3. Kill all cats.
After all, isn't it worth it if we can save just one kid's life? Besides, more people die each year from this disease than die from carbon dioxide emissions. Perhaps we should take all the money devoted to CO2 abatement, split it up amongst cat owners, and spend some money that'll really save some lives. And then we could export all that fur to China for them to turn into innovative rabbit coats.

Frank Drebin: Uh Raquel, so many go to bed hungry in this nation, yet cat food is full of tuna! I cant help but think each time I go to the zoo and see those porpises, crammed into those tiny tanks, what a waste that is. Butcher half of them now! That's hundreds of pounds of Dolphin meat that can be fed to our cats, freeing up that tuna for our nations hungry.

Raquel Welch: And the winner is...
Frank Drebin: Uh so many are cold, shivering in the night, so I say, butcher those cats, skin them! Use their fur to keep hundreds warm!
