In the comments, some fucktard smugly replies:

“Apparently, some people are willing to care for a child regardless of the difficulties she might have. Not everyone is interested in terminating pregnancies simply because a child might have a difficult life.”

Are they fucking blind? Perhaps they did not see the pictures associated with the article, how decrepid the so-called hospital is. Perhaps they are lacking empathy, for the tortured creature lying on the table, and the life she will face if she lives long enough.

I am amazed that someone would feel this particular article was a GREAT place for their pro-life agenda. Fucknuts.

All of the photos referenced above were taken by the talented photographer, Gary Parker.
