Just when you thought a******n advocates couldn’t get any more d********g than they already are, a report from The College Fix says that the concept of post-birth a******n rights is starting to gain traction on American campuses. Post-birth a******n, more commonly known as infanticide, is just what it sounds like – k*****g a baby that is viable to live on its own. According to The College Fix website, some extremist students advocate k*****g kids as old as five-years old, as they do not yet have self-awareness.

While this “trend” is unlikely to catch fire within our lifetimes, it does demonstrate just how far we’ve fallen as a country. With all the talk of how much more advanced civilization is today, the fact that even a small minority of liberals could toy with the idea of legalizing child murder makes me wonder. Of course, these students aren’t the first to advocate such an extreme position.

Consider Princeton professor Peter Singer, who wrote in 1979 that “human babies are not born self-aware, or capable of grasping that they exist over time. They are not persons…the life of a newborn is of less value than the life of a pig, a dog, or a chimpanzee.”

More recently, scientists in the Journal of Medical Ethics proposed that “after-birth a******n should be permissible…We claim that k*****g a newborn could be ethically permissible in all the circumstances where a******n would be.”

More than 40 years ago, philosopher Michael Tooley made the argument that a human possesses “a serious right to life only if it possesses the concept of a self as a continuing subject of experiences and other mental states, and believes that it is itself such a continuing entity.” Infants, who have no such self-awareness, would not qualify for protection under Tooley’s philosophy.

Losing America to the Extreme Left

This is the sick state of radical liberalism today, but it will eventually be the state of mainstream America if history is anything to judge by. Because that’s what happens. Every time. On a grand timeline, it wasn’t that long ago that legalized a******n would have been considered an idea so abhorrent that you would have been shunned from society for suggesting it. Now, you’re more likely to experience ostracization for opposing it. They call this “social progress.”

We are living in an age where, to undo the supposed misdeeds of our past, we are expected to go overboard to make amends. Thus, woman are not only equal to men, but they are afforded extra rights. So empowered is today’s woman that her inconvenience is given priority over the life of an unborn baby. Most of us have grown up in the shadow of Roe v. Wade, so this bizarre state of affairs seems almost normal. And that’s the greatest victory feminism and liberalism can achieve; once ideas have been pushed to an extreme for long enough, people simply forget that it was ever any other way.

I don’t believe for a second that I’ll live to see “post-birth” a******n become legal in the United States. I only wish I could say the same for future generations.

I think there is a obvious point to be made here. As Conservatives take a hard look at the mindset of your Liberal adversary. There is absolutely no where they won't go and will stop at nothing to destroy any as semblance of Society as we know it. In my mind these are sick individuals. Have we sunk so low as to classify children as simple human waste. If this does not get your blood boiling nothing will.

My position on a******n has always been, " If Murder in the 1st degree is punishable by the full force of law, which is determined when you stop someones heart, by means of a gun a knife or wh**ever, how then is a******n not murder when you stop a smaller, yet beating heart? No religion here, spiritual or moral judgement, just common sense approach in that how come murder is only murder when some say it is but not when its inconvenient. I know, the facts often get in the way of ideals. Sure do...amen.

Are these ridiculous creatures with these suggestions so brain damaged that they cannot imagine that some in society may see THEM the same way THEY see babies - totally without redeeming value, hence fodder for the executioner? Personally, I'd rather v**e to eliminate those people from society than babies. Those suggestions aren't worthy of any worthwhile human. Should we call for their elimination from LIFE?

Amen. Some of us are sickened by the fact Hitler k**led six million jews. But we have k**led sixty million innocent babies crying out for our help to just simply live. We deserve God's wrath on our country and we are seeing it unfold with a muslim leader who h**es God and Jesus and h**es the Jewish people.

I remember that guy. He was advocating that mothers be allowed to k**l their babies up to the age of 28 days. Scary, these people.

That's because they aren't human. They ARE monsters, inhumane, cold and crude monsters which the world should shun or treat.

LAPhil Loc: Los Angeles, CA

I doubt they can be treated.

LAPhil Loc: Los Angeles, CA

I don't see how that affects any of the politicians in Sacramento.

Myself I could not believe what I read. In point this is the irrelevance a liberal minded person puts to life. Then to me Liberals are irrelevant in my eyes. Plain and Simple they do not exist.

How can someone read something like this and not believe in evil?
