Also, defending yourself to a judge because someone broke in and threatened you would be easy, no?

Surprisingly, and sadly, no. In the UK, at least, you have to be able to PROVE that what you did was a 'reasonable' reaction to the attack against you. Killing someone in self defence would be a ***** to prove, even if they had bust into your house waving a machette having left a trail of bodies down the street. (well, maybe..) There was a case recently where a young lady was being raped by a taxi driver, but managed to stick something (her high heel? his own knife?) through the guy's leg. She hit an artery and the guy died. She went to jail FOR DEFENDING HERSELF WHILST BEING RAPED, leading to an accidental death of the perpetrator. So yeah, be FUCKING careful in self defence to have an excuse for everything, and if it all goes tits up GTFO and get an alibi

I did not mean to imply stupid people are genetically deficient. They do, typically, make for terrible parents and that lack of parenting creates a new generation of people just like themselves. Stupid people, by the way, do tend to have a lot of children and so it spreads. And by allowing them to take themselves out of this world you save the well being and lives of others who subsequent actions would impact.
Eh, you still kinda come off that way - I mean, there's talk in there of inherited stupidity, a correlation between stupidity and high birth rates, and the 'spread' of stupidity through said high birth rates. All smacks of genetic cleansing through encouragement of Darwin Award [http://www.darwinawards.com/] candidates. Not accusing, just sayin'.
To follow your plan to its goal and then make life simpler and faster for everyone, why not just execute anyone who can't pass a parenting test and who fall beneath an IQ threshold? No stupid parents = no stupid children - job done

No smell corpses lying around, and no danger posed by stupid people!
Or we could just educate everyone better? Just an idea, throwing it out there
