Abortions on Down Syndrome Babies Still High,

Abortions on Down Syndrome Babies Still High, Maybe 85 Percent
Nashville, TN (LifeNews.com) -- Abortions on babies with Down syndrome are still high and estimates show that as many as 85 percent of babies with the condition are victims of abortion. "To me it's scary," Andrew Imparato, president and chief executive officer of the American Association of People with Disabilities, told the Tennessean newspaper. "It's like trying to create a master race." Dr. Karen Summar, a pediatrician at the Vanderbilt children's hospital's Down syndrome clinic says she also thinks that more women are probably having abortions when tests show the baby has the condition. Still, she thinks more data is needed to prove it. Research shows only about half the expected number of babies with Down syndrome were born in 2001. The study in The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology found a nationwide decline in Down syndrome births, even as more women are giving birth later in life, which greatly increases the risk of Down syndrome.


This is all part of Margaret Sanger's plan to eliminate the "unfit".
