Q: Why do you think it has become socially acceptable to abort a child with Down syndrome? Schiltz: Because, unfortunately, it has become socially acceptable to abort any baby who disappoints the expectations of the baby's parents for any reason, as the increasingly common practice of sex-selection abortion indicates.

If they ever do find a "gay gene", people may terminate pregnancies based on that. I wonder what libs will do since they support abortions and gay rights. Quite a dilemma.

Don't forget mothers who abort every daughter they produce, looking for a son. You think the feminists will be able to bite their tongues and sit on their hands for that? They have so far...

They support gay rights and militant Islam, yet don't think it much of a contradiction.

Last year, a pro-life Republican state legislator in Maine introduced a bill to ban abortions based on presence of a "gay gene" if one is ever discovered, exactly so as to create a huge dilemma for liberals. See:

Nope. They will just try to make doing the test a felony hate crime. Problem solved.

With the increasing ease of genetic paternity testing that does not involve taking blood (can be done with hair samples or swabbing the mouth, the UK, for example has forbidden the practice without the mother's consent
