Smith adds that at least a fifth of the killings were performed without parental consent.

I can tell you that a Doc wouldn't do any more after mine.....

This is the obvious result of the "wisdom" of judges.

Once judges decide that murder is legal inside a woman's body it's only a matter of time before it becomes legal outside of it too.

Look for our own Judiciary to copy this ruling since some of them so love the European judicial systems.

The American Revolution led to a society where individual life, liberty, and property were valued. We've slipped a bit, but we are still a light unto the world.

The French Revolution led to socialism, where atheism, ruthless political scapegoating, deadly persecution of the weak and worship of the central state were the focus.

The Nazis were part of the European slide into barbarism. And the slide was not halted in 1945, only delayed for a little while.

"..or the infant born with profound mental retardation?”

These people believe with ALL their hearts that ending these lives is THE most loving and merciful thing you can do! They are sincerely bewildered that someone would want to keep them alive and seem obsessed with killing - hmmm - where could this obsession be coming from?????

The logical conclusion of the "right to die" insanity.

If the "right to die" advocates get their way here, this sort of thing will be commonplace in the USA.

This is a Preview of Coming Attractions for the United States.

If the state becomes responsible for the cost of health care, the state will look after it's interests. The interest of the state is served by minimizing cost by eliminating the sick and the feeble, or anyone who represents more costs than can they can reasonably be expected to provide in tax revenue. State responsibility for expenses sets up a perverse incentive. Keeping this in check will be the job of the electorate. But would it not make more sense not to put the state in the position of having such a perverse incentive?

Ultimately the state will grind the people down and have it's way, so it is very important to make sure the state's interest is the same as the people's interest. This is not at all true with nationalized health-care.

role of brain death

It has already been proposed here that we use organs from children who are not brain dead.

This is what happens when people start allowing infanticide, ie abortion. Suddenly inconvience becomes a justifiable reason for murder. How can anyone okay ending the already short life of child. I think that anybody who approves of giving women a choice should take a long hard look at what "choice" has brought to the Netherlands

My B-i-L is a neo-natologist. A good and wise man. I can see (fortunately, not yet "have seen") cases where euthanasia might be merciful, but I don't see him making any such determinations on his preemies lightly, or without parental consent. His conscience takes enough damage from the few that he can't save. Intentionally taking one would make him a wreck.

Of course, Lefties probably see nothing wrong with it, since the baby isn't a full 9 months old, yet.

More and more, elderly people and people with serious illnesses are going to resist hospitalization, for obvious reasons.

In my own family some relatives killed an elderly family member who was suffering from Alzheimmer's by denying him food and water.

This is sick and it will get worse, I believe.

This is what the world means by " Progressive"

They have lost their Moral compass, and have begun their decent into depravity.

Soon the people of the netherlands will begin speaking French.

The Netherlands has government funded healthcare, correct?
