re: #71 chunkymonkey

What’s the point? The claim here is that the parents are jerks for inflicting suffering on the child. I claim no suffering. Your question is not relevant to the situation.

You will get downdinged because you’re forcing the issue. The issue is that they think genetic defectives shouldn’t have children, and they think that money shouldn’t be wasted on the care of those who are already dead for all practical purposes.

And I will get downdinged for pointing this out. Of course, you are right that there is no suffering in a persistent vegetative state. An onion does not suffer.

Oh, and I agree with them. And that, too, will get downdinged, because it puts it squarely.
