was born to a 17 year old mother and a 22 year old father. They were raised Catholic and never so much as considered aborting me, and I am grateful that they took responsibility.
Every fetus suffering from Trisomy 21 should be terminated. This is the most basic of social and genetic hygiene and you'd spare morally obligated retards from destroying their families and their lives by anchoring them to something that can only take and never give while further burdening the public purse in supporting more permanent wards of the state.
Downs kids have infinite health conditions that sap all time and a lot of wealth from their parents, taking these resources from their normal siblings and usually preventing the birth of any more. Their existence often end marriages and in general causes objectively measurable suffering to their families and when they outlive their parents they become immense burdens that their siblings if any tend to hand off to the public as much as possible because their own lives were stunted by childhood resource divestment.
Defending or enforcing the existence of Trisomy 21 victims at the expense of everything around them is the same weak and childish slave morality that has resulted in immense national debt and half of our national budget going towards a permanent and growing welfare underclass of specific, measurabl nonproductive ethnoracial groups.
At the end of the day humans are animals and you have to maintain the herd's health if you don't want it to collapse, and in rejectingnthis basic necessity you'd superficially virtue signal even if it condemns us all to living in Hell on Earth.
The insane reactions of some radical pro-lifers and their disgusting, hateful rhetoric make me overthink my whole stance towards abortion. Sadly, they are actually no better than the radical idiots on the other side. Abortion is generally bad, but the couple made a perfectly rational, common sense decision.
I've met a number of people with down syndrome over the years and the range of disability is very wide - from almost 100% functional and intelligent to quasi vegetable that can't even speak. I don't know if you can detect the severeness beforehand and make your decision accordingly.
@amazingatheist Yeah, engagement bait. I'm surprised he didn't propose the death penalty for them, as he seems to have no problem at all with putting people to death after they have left the womb.
@amazingatheist Religious nuts use retards just as tools for virtue signaling. Like libtards do with illegal migrants. Both lack common sense and logic.
@prolifefrenchie Of course. That's why we should always try to detect disabilities during pregnancy and make sure only healthy kids get born. That's the only humane and rational way to handle this.
@wrathofgnon The takes regarding this topic get more insane every hour. Thanks for reminding me that religious nuts lack just as much common sense as commie libtards. It's all about virtue signaling - one group instrumentalizes retards, the other one foreigners.
