It is terrible that the child would only live a few days after birth, but that is justify killing the baby. I have a nephew with Downs Syndrome. Thank God his mother didn’t decide to kill him because he wasn’t perfect...

Whow the hell are we to decide what kinds of contributions people born disabled can make? Who the hell are we to determine whether they can live or die?

Not being perfect is one thing. This infant doesn't have a complete skull. That's where the brain is, you know.

This isn't about a shallow goal of perfection at all.
