Not so long ago parents with down syndrome children were given this wonderful answer to their 'problem' , Euthanasia.
In Nazi germany it extend to legalised murder, incorporating anyone else with a physical/mental disability, gypsies, jews, and probably then would have extended to people with in growing toe nails, or birth marks, such was the lovely Nazi party who took this idea to its ultimate.
We may not have a perfect system here but the alternative is open to abuse, maybe not as bad, but one life lost to abuse is one way to many for the humane amongst us at least.
