#2 is even more true. I get very annoyed with this 'us vs. them' that justifies so much discrimination that is so ingrained into us that people think it doesn't count.
Going with the 'excess population' idea, when the earthquake in Haiti happened a few years ago, someone told me that they were okay with it because Earth reacts to overpopulation and it's their own fault. This person said the same thing about New Orleans and Hurricane Katrina.
It's very similar to misanthropes who basically attempt to make exceptions of themselves.
