It's Okay to Kill Babies, Just Call it an “after-birth abortion”

According to Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva, “after-birth abortion” is proposed as a form of “contraception” that would allow babies to be killed after they are born.

In a paper published in the Journal of Medical Ethics:

“[W]hen circumstances occur after birth such that they would have justified abortion, what we call after-birth abortion should be permissible. … [W]e propose to call this practice ‘after-birth abortion’, rather than ‘infanticide,’ to emphasize that the moral status of the individual killed is comparable with that of a fetus … rather than to that of a child.

Therefore, we claim that killing a newborn could be ethically permissible in all the circumstances where abortion would be. Such circumstances include cases where the newborn has the potential to have an (at least) acceptable life, but the well-being of the family is at risk.”


..."Parents, relatives and even society should be enabled to force a mother to submit her child to infanticide because of the benefits that one less person would bring to our world."

The brave new world...

First fetuses, then infants, then young children, then teenagers, then adults... eventualy any human being - regardless of age - who has been determined to be inconvenient or troublesome, all to be "ethically" killed because someone determined it would be some sort of benefit to the world.

These people are scarier than the worst monsters in fiction.

They will kill thousands - millions - without guilt or remorse. Monsters like Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers do actually exist.

They will eventually gas or poison entire populations in the name of worldly benefit.

We should kill them off first, before their mental disease infects even more of the intellectual elite, before they gain even more power.

That these animals are being allowed public discourse is astounding.

More later on my blog. Maybe, if I don't get sick first.

The capacity of authoritarians to rationalize knows no limit:
It's not kidnapping, it's "indefinite detention".
It's not robbery, it's "wealth redistribution".
It's not murder, it's "post-birth abortion" - THIS IS MURDER, btw. No doubt about it:
That's what you get when doctors become union-labor bureaucrats!

They talk about the benefits that one less person would bring to our world, but it's funny how it's never them. They want to kill others, but never themselves.
