"...The baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and would not survive if removed from his mother's womb..."

The baby butchers would call Sam 'Imperfect' and 'Not Viable'

And then, for a price, they'd murder him in cold blood.

And the weak, cowardly apologists for evil among us would allow the killer to hide behind 'laws' that are no more binding on moral beings than were Hitler's edicts.

That is so true. I worked for five years managing a group home for developmentally disabled adults. These are the folks who really do need help, folks dealt a real bad hand from birth. I worked with a lady who had Spina Bifida, seizure disorder, and severe mental retardation. But let me tell you, she was a wonderful woman, with a unique personality, a great sense of humor, a great zest for life, a loving mother and father. I learned so much from her. I learned how much I have to be thankful for. Anyway, when I see stories like this, I often think of her, and the others that I met, who might someday be considered too "defective" or not viable, or whatever. That is why the real issue of all this really is the value of human life.

PS-I am planning on going back to that work again.
