The Trig Palin Death Cult
VIA Hot Air and Rachel Lucas, Canadian Dr Andre Lalonde has “concerns” about Sarah Palin’s son Trig Palin not being aborted.
Yeah. It’s the Trig Palin death cult. You gotta have a death cult:
Dr. Andre Lalonde, executive vice president of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists in Ottawa, worries that Palin’s now renowned decision may cause abortions in Canada to decline as other women there and elsewhere opt to follow suit.
He says not every woman is prepared to deal with the consequences of Down babies, who have developmental delays, some physical difficulties and often a shortened lifespan.
Lalonde says his primary concern is that women have the choice of abortion and that greater public awareness of women making choices like Palin to complete a pregnancy and give birth to their genetically-abnormal baby could be detrimental and confusing to the women and their families.
“The worry is that this will have an implication for abortion issues in Canada,” Lalonde tells the Globe and Mail.

Given some traits can’t be detected until the foetus is about 30 years old eg Hitler and other mass murderers, and just look at the detrimental effect he had on the world , could one ask just what harm can a Downs’ victim do? Most people who have a family member affected by the syndrome just say how loving they are.
The condition can be devastating, but not the person

I would think a woman will be able to make her own decisions on whether or not she can take care of a baby with “genetic abnormalities”. It was her choice to carry that baby full term and be a mother to him. She figured she was physcially, mentally, financially capable. If a woman will not be able to support a child with Downs, and knowing prior to his or her birth that the baby has abnormalities, its her choice to carry that child or not. Who gives this “Dr” the right to say that she should have aborted the child??? Palin or any other women who has made the same choice as her, did not ask her to carry the baby or take care of that child in any way. Why can’t he have the same chance at life like hundreds and thousands of other children and adults with Downs?? People with Downs can still perform certain jobs in the society and live their own lives. We have all seen them do it. Say if the time came when we are able to find out if children have autism in the womb, should we abort 1 out of 150 babies in the world? As an ObGyn she should be more understanding to why a woman chooses the way she does, and do not comment on her choices. After all, it is HER baby, not this doctors.
