In accordance with Papa Resolution
844, the Smurf Village has been on population control status. Resolution 844
absolutely forbids any increase in the Smurf population. The SDF has been ruthless
about, using the smufapaults to deter and even shoot down storks carrying new
baby Smurfs into the village. Protestors, the Smurf-Life movement have chained
themselves to the Smurfapaults. One of the leaders, musician Harmony Smurf,
has been the most vocal. "I believe it is the duty of the artist to use his
fame to help out a cause that they care about. That is why I am here, smurfed
to this terrible weapon." However, the official position of the Smurf-Choice
movement, who has been assisting the SDF in the carrying out of the plan, is
just as unwavering. "It isn't a baby Smurf |

until
the stork lands. Until then, we are needlessly increasing the population. We've
got Gargamel problems, we've got Chlorhydra problems, and we even have Big Mouth
problems. The bigger this village gets, the harder it becomes to hide. And I'll
be smurfed if I have to turn my mushroom into a duplex just to have to other
Smurfs freeloading on my couch." Smurf-Life activists were just as vocal. Another
protestor, Evangelist Smurf, will not rest until the SDF stops deterring stork
landings. "It is not a baby smurf when the stork lands," iterates Evangelist.
"It is a baby smurf when the stork takes off. There can be no denying it." The
debate still rages, but one thing is clear. Until the SDF can find a way to
dislodge the protesters off the smurfapaults, the stork will be able to land
at the next Blue Moon and deliver the baby. If the baby lands, the SDF hands
are tied and the baby will have to be given over to Smurf Social Services to
be raised by the village. "It is in the Great Smurf's hands now," preached Evangelist
Smurf. "I'm positive our faith will prevail." "Well see how Evangelist feels
when Clumsy or Painter start sharing a place with him," quoted Captain Hefty
Smurf of the SDF. We'll see how smurfy he feels when these baby smurfs are his
burden, or if our new bigger village gets found by Gargamel again." A temporary
injunction was smurfed against the SDF from using the smurflistas or smurfapaults
until the matter can be brought before the Supreme Smurf Court. However, with
a majority of the Justice Smurfs appointed by the more conservative Papa Smurf,
it seems unlikely that the current legal precedent will be over-turned. A decision
is almost certain to be delivered before the next scheduled blue moon. |
