They think that Sarah should have aborted her baby just because it had downs syndrome. I know of other people who have had chromosome issue and if their parents had aborted them then we would have lost several very intelligent people. The Left cries on end about diversity but when genetic diversity is stating them in the face they want it taken out with the bio hazard waste at the hospital. How callous of them.
Downs babies are probably just the beginning for the left, next thing they will mandate in their health care that all pregnant women get amniocentesis and if their baby shows any sort of genetic or chromosomal anomaly they will demand that the child be aborted. They will claim that this is for the health of the child that they don’t want to see if “suffer”. If that argument fails they will claim that it would be unfair to burden the parent with extra suffering and the taxpayers with the extra cost a developmentally disabled child may bring with them. Yeah that same argument was used by the Regressive “Progressives” of the early 1900’s for justification of sterilization of people.
The next targets of this cull will be those who have cerebral palsy, Sex chromosome anomalies, cystic fibrosis, or any other genetic condition that can be tested for, they will also start to justify the culling of those who may carry the genes but who don’t express those genes.
The dirty little secret is that genetic counseling can become a pseudo eugenics program quite quickly. All int he name of saving money and preventing the “suffering of others”.
This is why socialist healthcare is so evil and dangerous -
they will claim that the “handicapped” are too much of a burden on the healthcare system, and, since they are not human anyway, they will be required to be aborted.
