Michael Hugo, the chair of the Framingham Democratic Committee, argued in a city council meeting that crisis pregnancy centers are a danger to the community because their screening might not catch a birth defect, the result of which would be the live birth of an expensive-to-care-for disabled child.
Best to be sure to kill them before they have a budgetary impact.
Hugo is not just the chair of the Democrats in this one town in Massachusetts, but the director of policy and government affairs for the Massachusetts Association of Health Boards.
Nice to know. If you are planning on getting medical care in the state, be aware that the medical boards are lobbying the government to kill off the disabled.
There are calls for his resignation from disability groups, and if they succeed in getting him to leave his party position or even his job as a policy director, he can always move to Canada where killing off the unwanted and expensive is official government policy already.
A local Democrat official in Massachusetts is facing calls to step down after complaining about the cost of special education for children with disabilities who are not aborted.
Michael Hugo, the chair of the Framingham Democratic Committee, made the remarks during a city council meeting when discussing a proclamation about access to abortion and crisis pregnancy centers in the city. He said crisis pregnancy centers could misdiagnose a defect in a baby in the womb, leading to them being born and becoming a strain on a school budget. He issued a public apology after 10 days of backlash from members of his own party and parents of special needs children.
Misdiagnoses go both ways, of course. Planned Parenthood is so anxious to kill off babies that they have been known to recommend abortions for babies who turn out to be perfectly healthy. But killing babies is no big deal, so best to be sure.
Hugo has made the obligatory non-apology apology, ensuring the community that he meant no offense. He just wanted to be sure that everybody knew that letting babies live could be expensive, and the ROI might be negative.
Good to know.
In his public apology letter, Hugo called his comments “offensive and hurtful.”
“I am writing to offer my most sincere and humble apology to members of the Framingham Democratic Committee, but more especially my fellow members of Framingham’s disability family community, for comments that I made at the last City Council meeting which were offensive and hurtful,” he wrote.
He said members of the committee did not “see or review” his remarks despite being sent out the night before the meeting.
“Our fear is that if an unqualified sonographer misdiagnoses a heart defect, an organ defect, spina bifida or an encephalopathic defect that becomes a very local issue because our school budget will have to absorb the cost of a child in special education, supplying lots and lots of special services to children, who were born with the defect,” Hugo said at the Feb. 7 meeting.
Laura Green, a disability advocate in Framingham told Fox News that she does not accept his apology.
“I feel that it was generic and lackluster. I feel like after a statement like that is made, you can’t just pretend that it didn’t happen or take it back because it’s damaging to a community of people,” she said. “The disability community is the only minority group that you can become a part of at any time.”
Notice that the entire Democrat committee had been sent his remarks before he made them? He claims that nobody actually read them, and that is plausible as Democrats are like that. They probably just skimmed them to ensure he was all for killing kids. Who cares which ones, as long as enough die?
This is what happens once you abandon the belief that all human beings are made in the image of God and are uniquely valuable. The murder of the innocent is a natural consequence of the belief that one’s value as a human being is dependent upon being “wanted.”
Once you accept that human beings have no soul and no inherent value it is difficult to see how you don’t arrive at Hugo’s conclusion.
It would be comforting if Hugo were uniquely evil, but sadly he is not. He is probably just a normal, rational guy who believes that babies have to justify their existence by providing a good ROI. It’s the ideology that leads to this evil conclusion, not some defect in the soul.
At least I think that is the case.
Going Nazi.
Great/s
“Buck vs Bell”
SCOTUS Pierce Butler is the GOAT.
Here’s to praying Michael has a terrible, terrible auto accident (masshole drivers are some of the country’s worst) and becomes totally and completel disabled....
IIRC, “a useless eater” is the term that libs use to describe such.
“life unworthy of life”
Phrase coined and used by the Nazis.
Ok.
Lets tweak the article a bit.
Lets replace “the disabled” with “liberal”. Lets see how that flies. Because we have tons of societal and economic evidence liberals are a massive cost drain on society.
I know somwone who made fun of disabled and retarded, latet in life he had a terrible stoke and became both...
Joe Biden?
They have become so bold and confident in their power to control people, which Covid demonstrated their ability to rule over the despised peasantry, that they are now comfortable enough to expose their real goal, complete and utter destruction of anyone one, any peoples, and any country that does not parrot their sick and perverted ideology.
Evil.
No other word for it.
Living in a State that borders this s@hithole, I’m constantly amazed at the idiots who think they can bully people when they escape the confines of their State. They haven’t learned that all points north of them have Constitutional Carry rights, and they still mouth off.

Would that be the “Live Free, or Die” State?
Actually, baldness is a kind of disability. It can be argued that going bald can adversely affect a mans ability to progress socially, personally, and economically compared to normal men who have not become disabled by alopecia. So, if the earlier posted photo is of the councilman in question we must insist that he lead by example and lessen his community’s burden of having a handicapped councilman and resign the position and then commit seppuku, or just fall on his own sword.
Recall that it was the left who insisted that developmentally challenged children be mainstreamed into public schools and provided one-on-one individualized education programs while there.
At first it seemed to work, and then as more and more students were pushed into those programs, the care became less individualized and instead became “cookie cutter” programs which costs school systems large sums of money while providing little more than child-care for these children. Children with simple discipline problems (they had never received any such thing) were suddenly required to have Individual Educational Programs to assist with their “learning and developmental deficiencies” when their problem was simply not learning boundaries and expectations. Most of those students would do better with some structure, set expectations, and discipline in their lives.
Most of the truly developmentally challenged kids would benefit more from a smaller setting and a true individualized educational plan, either at home or a small select center, away from the the “one size fits all” programs we have today. Any child with problems can thrive in their own way and advance if given individual attention geared to their own hopes, expectations and limitations.
No, it’s the original Constitutional Carry State, that was solidly conservative while I was a kid here. The hippies and courts changed that over the years.
Reducing human life to a monetary value, sick. This was done to slaves.

Agree. They unemotionally kill pre-born babies by “abortion” and select the unworthy and too costly non-perfect children and expensive elderly with health problems for elimination to save healthcare money and be efficient.
No sympathy for the Left.
