I deserve to be killed because I won't condemn people over rumors?

I'll just let that linger out there.

You are free to believe anything you want, but some people prefer to wait for stories to be verified and proven true.

Kill it.
I agree. It is sad that the lives of these babies are taken away A parent that doesn't want to parent a child with Down syndrome can carry the baby to full term and put the baby up for adoption as they have a list of families having completed all the requirements for adoption and just waiting for a baby/child with DS to match their profile, to be chosen to parent one of the babies/children. I know the joy of getting that call that a baby is available. We adopted 29 years ago. This people can help a parent find a home for their baby/child: National Down Syndrome Adoption Network

It is different. In both cases, someone makes the decision to end a life but ISIS is going to kill everyone that won't convert or who doesn't measure up to their sick cult of a religion.

But ISIS must be dealt with and I oppose abortion more than most and ISIS needs to be taken out. Deal with the other later before most of us are taken out. We do not want to detract from what ISIS is and where this will lead.

They both stop a beating heart. In one case, the mother has this done and it is on her. In the case of ISIS it is just a continuation of their barbaric acts. Though I find it deplorable that a mother would have her own baby killed, ISIS is on a killing spree and that needs immediate attention. We can't help what a mother will do to her baby with or without "legal" abortion but we can take care of ISIS.

Again, there is no reason to abort a baby/child with Down syndrome, many families are waiting for the call that a baby/child is available. Again, the link: National Down Syndrome Adoption Network

Chalk another one up to those who will condemn others to death over unsubstantiated rumors.

The article in the OP is not a rumor. Many media groups are on this - do you need links?

It remains to be proven. I would not be surprised either way, but so far it is unproven.

Is ISIS Killing Babies with Down Syndrome? : snopes.com

For a WW2 example: Katyn Forest Massacre, near Smolensk Russia, 1940. Thousands of Polish soldiers's bodies were discovered by Germans invading the USSR. The Germans claimed the Soviets were responsible, which nobody believed at the time. Investigations after the war showed the Germans were indeed correct.
Interesting - Snopes put that out yesterday when all of this came out. Pretty quick work in getting out a counter article.

They don't deny that it happened - they just question the source. In other words, they don't know.
