Planned Parenthood Wins Right to Keep Aborting Babies with Down Syndrome

[Weatherman2020]

According to Planned Parenthood, who evidently enjoys assuming the role of 'God' in helping decide who should live and who should die, babies diagnosed with Down syndrome do not have the right to an opportunity to live and potentially be very successful people. They continue to defend their 'right' to leep aborting babies with Down Syndrome.

Planned Parenthood Wins Right to Keep Aborting Babies with Down Syndrome

"An Indiana judge has found for abortion giant Planned Parenthood in a suit brought against HEA 1337, a state law banning gender-selective abortions and those based on a prenatal diagnosis of disabilities such as Down syndrome.


U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Walton Pratt, an Obama appointee, has issued a permanent injunction against Indiana’s “Sex Selective and Disability Abortion Ban” in a 22-page decision, saying that provisions of the law “violate the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.”

HEA 1337 was signed into law in 2016 by Governor and now Vice President Mike Pence, and prohibited abortions based on the sex or race of the child or a prenatal diagnosis of “Down syndrome or any other disability.” The law also required that the remains of aborted babies be disposed of in a dignified fashion proper to human remains, rather than merely thrown out in the trash.

In her ruling, Judge Pratt defended sex-selective and disability-based abortions, stating that “it is a woman’s right to choose an abortion that is protected, which, of course, leaves no room for the State to examine, let alone prohibit, the basis or bases upon which a woman makes her choice.”


“The right to a pre-viability abortion is categorical,” Pratt declared, regardless of the particular motivation that drives a woman to seek it.

By this logic, the decision to eliminate an unborn child simply because the child is black, or a girl, or has Down syndrome must be protected."


(It should be emphasized how the liberal can not even call it what it is - 'KILL', not 'eliminate', 'MURDER an unborn baby', not 'ELIMINATE'. as if the bay was a typo in a document.)



If Planned Parenthood had it's way, these 9 amazing people with Down Syndrome would have been 'ELIMINATED' as babies:


1. Angela Bachiller. In 2013 in Valladolid, Span, Angela became the first person with Down syndrome ever to be elected councilwoman. She worked for three years in Social Welfare and Family as an administrative assistant, and loves reading and traveling. She hopes to shine a light on the normalcy of life with Down syndrome and make a difference in the lives of those with disabilities.

2. Megan McCormick. The first person with Down syndrome to graduate with honors from a technical college, Megan attended Bluegrass Community Technical College. She wants to work in education at the elementary level. She proves that with the right support and resources, people anywhere can reach their goals, Down syndrome or not.

3. Tim Harris. Tim is the owner of his own restaurant called Tim’s Place. In high school he was elected homecoming king (by the highest margin of votes in the school’s history), and was named Student of the Year as well. He dreamed of owning a restaurant, so he found jobs in the industry to learn as much as he could. And, according to the Tim’s Place web site, former employer Red Robin says that the store’s revenue went up during Tim’s shifts. He graduated from college with certificates in Food Services, Office Skills, and Restaurant Hosting. In addition, Tim recently created Tim’s Big Heart Foundation to help other people with disabilities start their own businesses.

4. Pablo Pineda. Pablo earned a bachelor’s degree in educational psychology and has gone on to be a writer, speaker, and actor. Born in Spain, he is a successful actor in his home country, receiving the Silver Shell award for his acting skills as well as the San Sebastian International Film Festival’s “Concha de Plata” as best actor of 2009 for his lead role in the film Yo Tambien.

5. Christian Royal. School never came easy to Christian, but that is just fine because he holds a skill many of us admire. Christian is highly talented at making pottery. He sells his beautiful dishes and bowls online and at an art gallery in South Carolina.

6. Bernadette Resha. Bernadette is also an artist who has made a name for herself. She and her work have been featured on television shows, in music videos, commercials, and magazines. In addition to creating beautiful paintings, she is a public speaker and violinist as well.

7. Michael Johnson. A painter, Michael is a self-taught Naïve Folk Artist. He has painted more than 500 commissioned portraits and had a solo exhibition at Vanderbilt University in 2001. His art has been featured in posters and on the cover of the American Journal of Public Health.

8. Sujeet Desai. A musician, Sujeet graduated from high school with a 4.3 grade average and went on to graduate from the Berkshire Hills Music Academy. He plays seven instruments including the violin, piano, trumpet and saxophone. He has received numerous awards and was even featured in the Wall Street Journal and Time Magazine as well as on 20/20 and the Oprah Winfrey Show. In 2006 he married Carolyn Bergeron who also has Down syndrome.

9. Melissa Reilly. Melissa has accomplished quite a lot in her life. She has travelled the country as an inspirational speaker. She is a decorated, gold medal winning skier, cycler, and swimmer and she has interned for a state senator. Melissa also teaches reading and math to preschoolers with Down syndrome. She says she loves her life 100%, and she proves that you can have a very fulfilling life with Down syndrome.

The world is a very different place for people with Down syndrome than it was 50 years ago, in both positive and negative ways. People with Down syndrome are no longer automatically placed in group homes, but instead are raised by their parents who nurture their child’s talents and abilities rather than focusing on any disabilities.

However, in this day and age, a person with Down syndrome is lucky to be born at all due to prenatal testing and recommendations from uninformed doctors to abort. Thankfully there are many successful and happy people with Down syndrome sharing their story so that fewer and fewer parents who receive a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis will be pressured into aborting their child."

Abortion is some sort of sacrament to the left.

Just let the invisible hand of the free market decide whether to have abortion.

Absolutely as it should be.

The right wants bigger and bigger government and more controls on our most intimate and private decisions and actions and they MUST BE STOPPED. Keep the state out of our private lives.

I see nothing wrong with a family deciding they dont want to birth a physically and mentally challenged person. Especially a poor family.

Why not let them kill already born children with Downs or other 'defects too?

Because they have been birthed

How far birthed? You know they birth the head and then slit the spinal chord at the base of the neck, birth the rest and then throw them in the trash. Read the heart wrenching accounts that nurses gave Congress. Pro abortion nurses, who have picked up those struggling infants and hid in closets, holding those children, sometimes for an hour or more, till the babies finally stop fighting to live.
If we treated puppies this way, the country would rise up together to condemn the violence.

 

[easyt65]

Down Syndrome is justification enough to abort - 'eliminate - KILL - unborn babies...according to liberals.

What's next?

MS?
Fibro Myalgia?
Cleft pallet?
Not 20-20 eye-sight?
Too short?
Not athletic?
Tendency / Potential to vote REPUBLICAN'?

Why do the pro-birthers always vote against helping poor children?

How many have you adopted?

MS would be a good reason to. I think MS is hard to test during pregnancy. Not like Downs.

Progs claim it's inhumane to execute a person with Downs, but not to abort?



Fucking Progs....they are consistently hypocrites.

Wrong, my friend. Some want to protect the most innocent and vulnerable among us from being 'eliminated' because parenting will be hard(er) due to physical challenges or from a-holes who believe abortions are a form of post-intercourse birth control.

I personally would like to see the extremely barbaric practices of partial birth abortions / late term abortions outlawed. The term 'barbaric' does not do the procedure justice. How someone could ram a rod into the skull of a child (who could survive outside the womb) scramble its brains, hack it into pieces, then drag it out of the mother is unfathomable.

Leaving a child's head (again, one who could survive outside of the mother) inside the mother while every other part is out JUST so you can TECHNICALLY say the child has not been born yet and thus is still a fetus so you can justify still aborting the baby is almost inhuman.

The procedure(s) should be banned unless the mother's life is in jeopardy on the ground of 'humanity' / 'human decency'.

Why don't we treat human beings with the same mercy and love with which we treat our companion animals?

Abortion is here to stay but the rabid religious right wing pro-birth fanatics demand that both the woman and the fetus suffer to the greatest extent possible. You want doomed fetuses to be born, irrespective of their pain and/or short lives.

How about the elderly? Assisted suicide? Keeping brain dead people alive against their wishes and the wishes of the family?

Bottom line is always the same - The reason a woman aborts is her business only. MYOB.

I beg to differ.

I was diagnosed with MS not long ago. It is a challenge but in no way a condition that would justify 'eliminating' a baby.

My grandmother, aunt, and father had MS. When I joined the service I was asked if I wanted to have spinal tap done to test to see if I COULD develop MS later in life. Of course I said 'no' - who would want to go through life worrying about POSSIBLY developing MS?! Through / During my years of service I am honored to say that there are quite a few lives saved from my being around.

Just because you COULD have it does not mean you WILL. Although not proven to be hereditary, my brother did not develop MS.

Agreed, testing for it in the womb, I imagine, would be difficult. I am pretty sure that fluid could be taken and tested.

You are trying, and failing, to describe the intact D&E or intact D&X.

What you describe is not correct. Educate yourself.
