It's also important to remember that it is just a fetus that is being aborted, it is a non-sentient being and so I dont consider it morally wrong to have it removed

Fair points. I dunno, it's always a sensitive issue with me because I grew up with them and understand that it's not all difficult for them. As much as they experience hardship, they can still embrace joy, fulfillment and every other emotions that a non disabled person can. In todays society anyway many disabled people are accepted into society (or so I thought)
And definatley fair point on that last part, I just don't like the idea that people would have an abortion JUST because of it's disability. I'm aware 'survival of the fittest' has been around for generations but when people start to play God and just says "well that life isn't good enough" it really makes me quite sad.
