There have been those who suggest that death is preferable to my sister's first son living, simply because he has club feet

Glad we agree

[fpb]

Or to quote myself in more than one similar occasion, "You lay one hand on my [tetraplegic] brother, and I'll duff you up". "Duff people up", in case anyone did not know, means beating them up severely.

Amen.

Family is not to be screwed with.

It occurs to me that if more people were vocal like this in public all the time, about this same issue, abortion would have alot less support in this country, and the anti-life crowd would shut the hell up alot more often.

We all know how they wilt before anything that's really dangerous.

[headnoises]

I think manners gets in the way.

No-one wants to say anything that will upset folks. (well, nearly no-one)

Club feet? Come on!

[headnoises]

Children are also aborted for a *chance* that they may have dwarfism-- which, by the way, can be cured with growth hormone these days-- and several other strange reasons.

[redcoast]

The dwarfism thing is very disturbing, especially considering that most dwarves are born to parents of normal height.

[headnoises]

Also disturbing is the number of times that the doctors are dead wrong about the chance of someone having a problem.

Ignore them.

People like that are a waste of time and air that would be better used for someone else.

[headnoises]

It's the internet--if you ignore them, they think they've won.

If you reply back, they may still think they've won, or at least act it, but there is a chance it will worm into their mind; also, other people will see the response and it might get through to *them.*

You way would be much better for my nerves, though. *grin*

Our founders put the second amendment in for a reason. Everyday we get closer to it.

Very subtle.
