No they do not. I have yet to see any policy that benefits anyone but the rich from the GOP and Trump. How do these tools keep buying the garbage Trump and the GOP are peddling?

Incompatible with life? Man, isn't that a wide net. You could have been "incompatible with life" for all we know. Would Stephen Hawking live under your rule?

So pulling the plug on brain dead patients in the hospital is definitely murder and murder charges should be filed?

Not one word from you on what Trump actually said in context. Just parroting opinion from the leftist rag.


Also isn't Northam that racist Democrat from VA that CNN tried to claim was a Republication?

At least Palin's "death panel" nonsense didn't implicitly call out as murderers people who'd been faced with a colossal tragedy and the sort of tough decision that no parent should ever have to face. Then again, Trump makes Palin look like a stateswoman, so...

If ignorance was incompatible with life, the quality of debate on this board would be a good deal higher.

Hard to have a debate/discussion with someone who has no idea what he/she is talking about.

So, he means that if the parents know their child is going to die fairly soon, they can choose to keep the child alive by artificial means... or not.

It was not the most eloquent thing I ever heard, but it's not infanticide any more than deciding to pull the plug on your braindead grandpa after his coma is murder.


Issues such as whole brain death and PVS are already addressed by laws that apply to every person, regardless of recent birth status.

So why do we need this new, proposed legislation that involves speaking to the parents before taking action?

What do you mean by "action," advanced life support measures to prolong death?
