I’m afraid that you’re going to get hammered.

OK, I’ll start.

An estimated 92% of children with Downs Syndrome are aborted. Mostly it’s due to the convenience factor as parents want “the perfect child.”

Some friends of ours adopted a Downs Syndrome baby from Eastern Europe a few years ago. Sure, she’s got her problems. She’s profoundly affected by it.

They think so much about these kids in the former Soviet Union that if they don’t get adopted by five, they get put in a warehouse until they die. Probably a year or two.

That sounds pathetic, but we’re not far behind. 92% is unforgivable. The pure selfishness of that act is amazing.

It’s pretty hard to get 92 percent of Americans to agree on anything. After all, if there are 100 people at a party, and 92 of them tell the other 8 they are drunk, maybe those 8 people should have some coffee and lay down for a while.

Supposedly there are less than 200,000 little people living in the US today. I’ve seen places claim the abortion rate for them is around 90%.
