    We do a wonderful job caring for people in this country including the afflicted why do you want to exterminate them because of that?

    Now do all this people in the video look lime they have no concept if their life is worth living.

    YOU brought up they cost resources as a justification.

    And now more attempted justification to just exterminate them.

    Well I'm jot a Republican but where do yiu get the idwa we do not take care ofnour afflicted and disabled here. In fact we conservatives want to insure resources going to able bodied persons capable of providing for themselves are better spent for those who cannot.

    But telling how the arguments from the left here are not support for those who cannot support themselves but extermination of them.

    Yes, someone was talking about saving money. Talking about the increase of taxes to support the disabled. She brought up the resources needed to support the disabled. That poster sees cost as the reason to kill a disabled unborn child.

    And you bring up compassion. If it's compassionate to kill a disabled unborn baby, is it compassionate to kill a disabled adult? The only difference is that to kill the unborn is legal and to kill a disabled child or adult isn't.
    Should a "compassionate" society change that law in your opinion?

    Yes it is reasonably common but those abortions are spread out over the reproductive life of the woman.

    It matters because republicans want to save the foetus but condemn the child

    No I am asking you and getting no answers

    How much are you willing to fund these children

    It is no good to save a foetus but condemn the child

    False hype. Has nothing to do with killing unborn babies unless you as a non republican are advocating we kill them to save money.
    You are asking me about cost. Funding. That is what is on your mind and it is the point of your post. Cost.

    And I answered you earlier.

    That is not answering the question

    The question is how much of societal resources are you willing to spend?

    Since these children have a higher risk of leukaemia then surely they should have free health care

    Should they have free health care since they have so many health problems?

    Where have I supported exterminating refugees and we spending billions in foreign aid to them. This is pretty absurd that since we cannot bring EVERY refuge to this country we should exterminate the afflicted and disabled here.

    So again because they take resouces we should exterminate the afflicted and disabled HERE?

    Answer your own question shuld they or should they be exterminated. And I am in record that those who are truely disabled receive assistance. I don't believe they should be exterminated.

    Now answer your own question.
